What was the NIBSS experience like?
Encouraging Indigenous Business Students
In January, Year 11 and 12 students from metropolitan, regional, and remote Australia joined National Indigenous Business Summer Schools (NIBBS) in Melbourne and Perth to experience university life with teaching, support and inspiration from Indigenous mentors, business leaders and academics.
NIBSS programs are collaborations between several universities and the ABDC.

Turning Up the Heat on Climate Action
Meet Associate Professor Melissa Edwards
Australia’s business schools are boosting their focus on climate change by appointing a Climate Action Fellow to coordinate their actions nationally and liaise with industry, the not-for-profit sector and government.
This follows the recent ABDC Climate Action Declaration.
Listen to a podcast with Climate Action Fellow, Associate Professor Melissa Edwards, here.

Welcome
Welcome to the ABDC, the collective voice of Australian university business schools.
Our 38 members teach and research the areas vital to the success of the businesses that underpin Australia’s economy.
As their peak body, ABDC’s role is to ensure that those with political, social, cultural and economic influence appreciate and support how business education contributes to Australia’s future.
Australian university business schools graduate 17% of all domestic students and 46% of the nation’s international students.
