Eun Ju Kim-Baker Emergency Bursary

Priority area: Transforming our world

This bursary honours Eun Ju's deep care for people by offering support to students in difficult times.

Eun Ju Kim-Baker (them / they) was a student at ANU who cared deeply about many social issues. They believed that people deserve freedom from prejudice of all kinds. Society should be free from racism, ageism, religious prejudice and sexism; people with a disability have valuable lives; refugees should be treated humanely; and we all have a responsibility for the planet and its people.

Eun Ju's family and friends hope the Eun Ju Kim-Baker Emergency Bursary will help make the recipient's life just a little easier at a difficult time.
