Minoru Hokari Memorial Scholarship
After his untimely death in 2004, Minoru's colleagues and friends in the ANU Â鶹´«Ã½AV Centre for Indigenous History in the Research School of Social Sciences, at The Â鶹´«Ã½AV National University decided to establish a memorial scholarship in his name.
Donations in support of the scholarship assist a postgraduate student to conduct fieldwork or related research in Â鶹´«Ã½AV Indigenous history.
A graduate of Hitotsubashi University (MEc 1996) and The Â鶹´«Ã½AV National University (PhD 2001), Minoru conducted fieldwork amongst Gurindji elders, who he acknowledged as exceptional historians in their own right. His untimely death in 2004 curtailed a very promising career.
