Mérinda Dutton is a proud Gumbaynggirr and Barkindji woman from the rural community of Grafton, NSW. Merinda developed a strong passion for law and social justice during her early teenage years. During her first year at UNSW, studying for a Bachelor of Jurisprudence/Bachelor of Laws double degree, Merinda was awarded the Landon-Smith Family Scholarship. The following year, she became a recipient of the Paul Doneley Memorial Scholarship, set up to support First Nations Australians undertaking law studies at the University. She undertook student internships at Allens, the Office of the Registrar of the Aboriginal Land Rights Act, and the Native Title Service Provider for Aboriginal Traditional Owners (NTSCORP) to supplement her scholarship income. Merinda graduated in 2013 and is an Acting Senior Solicitor at the Civil Law Service for Aboriginal Communities at Legal Aid NSW. Based in Lismore, she joined the organisation in 2014 and delivers advice and casework assistance to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in remote and regional communities throughout NSW, as well as to First Nations women in custody. Merinda was named the Attorney-General Department’s 2019 National Indigenous Legal Professional of the Year at the National Indigenous Legal Conference in Darwin. She co-founded Blackfulla Book Club with Teela Reid in April 2020.
