Skye Krichauff

Skye Krichauff is a PhD student who is researching Aboriginal-settler histories in the mid-north, Yorke Peninsula, and lower Flinders of South Australia (the country of the Ngadjuri, Narungga and Nukunu). Skye is interested in the stories descendants of both groups tell about the colonial past, and the way communities collectively remember and represent such histories. Since 2004 Skye has been working with the Narungga Aboriginal Progress Association as a history researcher. Between 2004-8 she worked as a research assistant on an ARC funded project investigating frontier violence in South Australia and the Northern Territory. In 2008 Skye completed a MA through the University of Adelaide in which she explored relations between the Narungga and Europeans in the nineteenth century. She is involved in the ISR’s Social Memory and Historical Justice project.
