This chapter will discuss how an understanding of justice as accountability, justice as collaboration and justice as visibility shape the author’s research practice, and how the projects they have been involved in have created these understandings of justice and the importance of creating spaces for justice conversations. These projects include the Minutes of Evidence project, a collaboration between Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers, education experts, performance artists, community members, and government and community organizations to consider new modes of publicly engaging with historical and structural injustice; Sites of Violence, Sites of Peace, a collaboration between Indonesian and Australian academics that worked with three marginalized communities to develop alternative city tours of the city of Yogyakarta that highlight and narrate sites of historical injustice; and Access to Justice during COVID-19 for Newly Arrived, Refugee and Migrant Communities in Victoria that is collaborating with service providers and community organizations to document the experiences of the communities they work with in accessing legal and social support services during COVID-19, and understanding these within a framework of access to justice.
