ANU Governance Project Final Report

Abstract

This report presents the findings of the ANU Governance Project, a six-month community-led inquiry into governance structures and practices at the Australian National University. Drawing on input from more than 600 participants, the data gathered through surveys, kitchen table conversations and a deliberative governance workshop indicates widespread dissatisfaction with existing processes and shared priorities for transparency, accountability, and inclusive decision-making. The report synthesises these findings into a coherent reform pathway, offering 30 recommendations to support constructive and community-driven institutional change. Show more
