<p dir="ltr"><b>Stories of Change</b> is an impact booklet from RMIT University's Social Equity Research Centre. It showcases the breadth of our research through “Hearts and Minds” projects that reflect our values of inclusion, justice, and community connection. Each story highlights how evidence and lived experience come together to shape policy, practice, and everyday lives — from supporting youth experiencing housing insecurity to advancing disability-led creative practice, improving dementia care, and influencing global peace operations. This booklet captures how research can touch hearts, shift minds, and transform systems for a more equitable world.</p>
