Direction 1 recap:
RMIT’s commitment to helping people adapt and thrive amidst
technological transformations, while shaping a more inclusive and sustainable world.
During the latest Directions consultation phase from July to September, you shared your valuable input on six Directions through online and leader-led discussions, workshops, forums and written submissions.
We heard from our community in RMIT Melbourne, Europe, Vietnam and all across the globe, including students, staff, academics, researchers, alumni and industry partners on the ambitions, priorities and values that RMIT should pursue as we journey towards 2022 and beyond.
The RMIT NEXT conversation has been led and shaped together through our global network and has explored opportunities that emerged from this incredibly challenging period for the future.
Here are the key insights from your community input:
Support our communities to thrive in a post-pandemic world, emphasise access and inclusion through RMIT’s multi-sector offerings, research and specialist expertise, work with industry and government to create new skills, jobs and solutions.
RMIT should be a university of choice recognised for building inclusive platforms and cultures that address deep-rooted systemic challenges and progress Reconciliation, Australian First Nations Sovereignty and self-determination, and Gender Equality through learning, public policy, and workplace innovation.
Grow RMIT’s distinct ecosystem of embedded locations, partnerships and commitments to local communities to shape innovative and creative centres around the world.
Develop solutions that address climate change and advance the development of sustainable communities and cities.
Embrace and model a culture of wellbeing, empathy, authenticity and honesty to shape a shared vision of excellence and impact.
