As Engagement Australia (EA) proudly celebrates its twenty-year history in 2023, this year's flagship EA international conference considers what will be the function of universities shaped by a new Accord?

During a time when our society is facing challenges that demand the questioning of dominant values and established ways of being, a reinvigoration of the purpose and function of Australian universities is happening.

Supported through the Accord process, Australia is collectively re-imagining the purpose of higher education where community engagement and work for the public good is front and centre.

The 2023 flagship Engagement Australia international Conference and Awards event will explore this rethinking of purpose for our cherished sector with University leaders and engagement practitioners as well as architects of the Accord process facilitating future scenario planning, plenaries and workshop sessions.

Please join us at Western Sydney University, Parramatta South Campus 20-22 November 2023
