The ANU held a Town Hall style meeting on 26 May 2022 to discuss The ANU’s International Strategy Update. The new website was most impressive but is currently only available internally.

One question on  the Zoom chat was put to Brooke Logan who had said  that some updated regional plans had been sent to Regional Institutes. The questioner pointed out  Africa does not have an Institute or a Centre.

From the graphics could be seen that Africa was lacking in many areas, including an absence of student exchanges. 

The ANU Media Team is updating the experts guide for the media. At present ANU staff members interested in Africa are scarcely represented in the Guide.

To be listed in the Guide, this short survey should be completed as soon as possible. https://www.anu.edu.au/webform/expert-directory-entry

The survey has one tick box for Africa but unlike most other regions has no tick boxes for individual countries. In contrast, the Middle East and Central Asia has tick boxes for 20 countries while the Pacific region has 12.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call James Giggacher (Associate Director, Media and Communications) on +61 436 803 488 or the team on +61 2 6125 7979.
