Since our founding almost 50 years ago, Griffith has had social and environmental causes at heart. We believe in creating impact for individuals, families, communities and society at large. Griffith is constantly producing a wealth of world-class work, with over 20 research centres and institutes collaborating to address the key challenges of our time.
With so much happening across the University, we wanted to create a place specifically to illuminate some of our most innovative and inquisitive ideas. We also think that education, and the knowledge it generates, should be for everyone.
Enter Enlighten.
A multi-disciplinary, multimedia story hub, Enlighten provides a platform to elevate our world-changing work—especially that which doesn’t always get the exposure it deserves elsewhere. It’s a place to share our ideas with as many people as possible by publishing accessible, engaging articles, videos, podcasts and other content to explore the issues that really matter.
Enlighten is helping us create a brighter future—and that starts with creating a brighter today.
The Griffith community boasts a wealth of thought leaders who can provide insight, knowledge and ideas on topical issues of interest to a broad audience. To date, this knowledge has been shared across multiple platforms, including Griffith Review, Integrity 20, The Machinery of Government blog, pieces in The Conversation, and ad-hoc sector opinion editorials in various local and national media outlets.
A new web platform, Enlighten, has been created to provide a structured approach to the planning, commissioning, dissemination, and amplification of thought leadership content, regardless of discipline.
There is additional information about Enlighten, its editorial board and guidelines available to Griffith staff members.

The dire report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change may have left you feeling overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next. We often hear about ways everyday people can tackle climate change, but which acts will make the biggest difference?
Welcome to the livestream of ‘A better future for all’ Kerry O’Brien in conversation with Rachel Griffiths AM.
In the first months of 2020, the vibrations of the Earth changed. As monitored by a global network of seismologists, the average daily displacement of the surface of the planet – measured in nanometres, or increments of one billionth of a metre – fell around the world, from Nepal to Barcelona to Brussels.
