Authored by Dr Kelly Wade, Empowering First Nations youth: Indigenous scientist Dr Katrina Wruck’s inspiring story is an article published on Cosmos Magazine that highlights the contributions of one trailblazing Indigenous scientist to the field of environmental chemistry. The article was sponsored by Queensland University of Technology (QUT) with the primary goals of raising awareness about QUT among a broader audience and driving traffic to their website. As with all sponsored content, a key challenge for this project was to create content that would appeal to both QUT’s audience and the readership of Cosmos Magazine, while ensuring the article did not appear overly promotional.
