Nobel Laureate James A. Robinson from University of Chicago joins us this November to present 'Wealth in people: Africa in comparative perspective'.

Proposing a framework for thinking about the distinctiveness of African society based on the notion of “wealth in people”, Professor Robinson will explore the historical construction and dynamics of African political and economic institutions and how these had many unintended consequences in the modern world.

From UniMelb to the Big Apple, without ever leaving campus 🍎

Our Business Judgement capstone students recently stepped into The Global Portal to connect live with professionals in NYC for their first AI + Human Judgement session.

Feeling like they were in the same room as our international guests, our students discussed different perspectives, ideas and experiences to explore where artificial intelligence assists and where human judgement matters.

Where in the world will we end up next? 🌏

On average, Aussies are happy in love, but relationships don't always run smoothly.

The latest HILDA Survey from shows that relationship quality can be a rollercoaster—high in the beginning, it declines until about 24 years after moving in together, then gradually increases again and reaching relatively high levels after age 65.

Of all the factors analysed, Melbourne Institute researchers found that there’s one significant strain on a relationship: financial stress.

Cognitive ability tends to decline with age, and the slide steepens once we've blown out the candles on our 50th birthday cake. But something is happening to 15 to 24-year-olds.

The latest HILDA Survey has found that cognitive and financial literacy scores of 15 to 24-year-olds have declined.

Are Aussies happy? What is the real-life impact of financial stress? What plays the biggest role in people's health, households, and relationships?

Conducted by Melbourne Institute researchers, HILDA is the longest-running nationally representative longitudinal survey in the country that helps paint a picture of how Australians respond to life events.

Innovation is central to Australia’s prosperity, yet the breadth and depth of Australia's innovation ecosystem is only partly understood.

A new index developed by the Melbourne Institute, in partnership with Commonwealth Bank, charts 18 years of Australian business innovation activity. It shows a country with real potential, and where we need to focus to realise it.

researchers Professor Paul Jensen and Professor Beth Webster and Dr Trevor Kollmann, Swinburne University of Technology, explain in the latest Pursuit article.

Hands up if you joined this year's sheCommerce camp 🙋🏼‍♀️

Last month, we hosted the annual sheCommerce camp where Year 11 and 12 students spent three-days living the life of a university student. They made friends, learnt from FBE academics and current students and competed in a case competition.

For the first time, many camp ambassadors were former sheCommerce students! We hope to see some familiar faces back on campus in the near future 👋🏼
