About the Consultation

As part of Renew ANU, we are working to strengthen the University's long-term sustainability. The University will continue to focus on refining its structure and organisation, building on the realignment activities completed in 2024. It is critical that the approach to University-wide improvement is comprehensive and includes consideration of each service, academic activity and research activity to determine how best to deliver long-term financial sustainability.

We must continue refining our operating model—the combination of people, roles, structures, processes, and technology that underpins how we deliver value. This consultation provides an opportunity for staff, students and unions to engage in shaping the University’s future.
