Our Uni, Our Future | Newcastle Community Forum
After almost two years of campaigning and members putting themselves in the firing line, the final report on the NSW Parliamentary Inquiry into the University Sector has landed. But what comes next in the campaign to fix our unis?
ICAC, NSW Parliament, staff stories and media digging all point to the same conclusion union members have known for years. Corporatised management, unaccountable councils and business interests have taken our public institutions down a dark path.
The inquiry placed University of Newcastle at the epicentre of this crisis, and so our forum will be held live as a special event at the Newcastle City Hall Banquet Room from 5.30pm, with a Webinar for those who want to watch online.
Join key speakers on Thursday 3rd of December for a night of in-depth conversation as we unpack the report, the significance of its recommendations and what comes next in the campaign to fix our unis.
