Community Cabinet creates opportunities to deliver on national priorities
06 Nov 2009
Charles Sturt University (CSU) will welcome The Hon. Kevin Rudd, MP, Prime Minister of Australia, and senior members of the Federal Cabinet to the Bathurst Campus on Monday 9 November for a Community Cabinet Meeting.
CSU is the first University to be asked to host a Federal Community Cabinet Meeting. The University also hosted the 2020 Summit for central west NSW and the recent Community Cabinet Meeting of the NSW Government.
CSU Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Ian Goulter, and Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic), Professor Ross Chambers, will meet with the Prime Minister to discuss the future of higher education in regional Australia.
Senior staff of CSU will also use the opportunity to discuss with key ministers how the University is delivering on national priorities in rural health, higher education, creative industries, and early childhood education.
“As a University, our primary role is to promote public engagement with ideas and to promote new thinking to deliver national priorities,” Professor Goulter said.
“The University holds a range of public seminars, theatrical productions, exhibitions and other events throughout the year as part of our commitment to intellectual and cultural engagement with our communities.
