"It's not enough just to change the bums in the seats, we actually need to change the structure of how ANU is governed overall."

Very proud of this incredibly brave NTEU member speaking truth to power.

"The government has set out a genuine long-term vision for higher education. But without sufficient funding, the noble ambition of sending more students to universities simply cannot be realised.” - Dr Alison Barnes, NTEU National President.

Inclusive Workplaces. Better Universities.

We need universities to commit to equitable Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander employment targets, and ensure that they are creating inclusive spaces that embrace kinship, cultural and community obligations, to ensure mob are supported

Secure Jobs. Better Universities.

Ongoing work should mean ongoing jobs. Fixed-term contracts create more uncertainty, more stress and less control over our working lives. Staff deserve secure jobs to build stronger and more sustainable universities: https://t.co/OPb7JWcSU2

[Alison Barnes @AlisonBarnes25]

NTEU members in the ACT supported by many more around the country have fought so long to expose the governance crisis at the ANU. We have achieved so much but I am still shocked by some of what is still being revealed about Bell and Bishop’s tenure.

[NTEU @NTEUnion]

Work/Life Balance. Better Universities.

A right to disconnect protects your health, well-being and family time.

Staff need boundaries from work to safeguard their personal life and general well-being.

Just days after Four Corners exposed $1.8 billion in consultant spending, we're now seeing universities hire external lawyers to block basic salary transparency.

Staff and students deserve transparency and answers.

Victorian universities are abusing Freedom Of Information laws, NTEU says, as transparency concerns grow.

When teaching and research is so stretched that unis are closing departments and sacking hundreds of staff, this shovelling of of huge dollars to the private sector - who do neither - is unforgivable https://t.co/Yws7AFa7Ek

Stronger intellectual freedom protection. Better Universities.

Intellectual freedom is at the heart of what defines a University.

Professional staff need protection of intellectual freedom so they can speak up and share their expertise. Universities must support, not silence to those who do. Join the NTEU today: https://t.co/nTkL8qpabe
