Abstract
Serving the needs of our communities is central to the values of Charles Sturt University. Enhancing social, environmental and economic wellbeing through our research, education and community engagement is an important way we can meet community needs while also delivering on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
The staff and students of Charles Sturt University have much to be proud about. As Australia's leading regional university, we strive to inspire our students by shaping a brighter future. Our goal is to foster prosperity, not just for our local communities, but globally.
I am pleased that Charles Sturt University has again delivered a positive impact throughout 2023. Examples of this include:
- The Grow Your Own Teacher program focused on supporting education workers with existing classroom experience to complete formal teaching qualifications and service the needs of targeted school locations such as Dubbo and the Murray region.
- The establishment of Yindyamarra Ngulyway - a program of research, events, podcasts and wider contributions to public discourse that explores achieving justice for First Nations peoples, reforming democracy and speaking back to the deeper moral and spiritual crisis of our times.
- A team of Charles Sturt's internationally recognised freshwater fish experts have led the development of a new course being offered online to support authorities in South-East Asia to mitigate the impacts of river development on fish populations through the education of key stakeholders.
- The Women in Trades in Regional Australia program has established the framework for a robust trades workforce and sustainable skills development to drive job growth and economic prosperity post COVID-19, including the Trade Pathways Program, which provided a Women in Trades Strategy to increase the participation of women in trades.
I am continually inspired by the university's commitment to making a real difference in people's lives. The work we do here has a lasting impact, and I hope it serves as a source of motivation for all of us. I look forward to witnessing even more positive outcomes in the year ahead as we continue this important journey together.
