SUMMARY:The Future of Sustainability Virtual Conference
DESCRIPTION:In a rapidly changing world\, where pressure is mounting on the systems we rely on\, the need for bold\, collective action has never been greater. While momentum across the tertiary education sector is growing\, the 23rd ACTS Conference calls on the sector to build on this progress with determination—to deepen our efforts to regenerate\, restore and reimagine what is possible. \nHeld virtually in 2025\, the conference is a powerful equaliser. It welcomes not only sustainability practitioners and educators\, but anyone eager to learn from the sector’s progress and its pressing challenges. From emerging leaders to established changemakers\, all are invited to explore the future of sustainability in a space that prioritises equity\, access and action. \nThrough three dynamic streams—Transforming Practice\, Learning for Change and Building a Just Transition—we will explore the systems\, skills and leadership needed to embed sustainability across institutions and communities. These conversations will highlight the practical strategies that bring sustainability to life\, the role of education and capability building in shaping change\, and the transformative power of governance rooted in values. Central to this is the recognition and amplification of Indigenous knowledge systems that have cared for Country for generations\, along with a commitment to justice\, climate action and community resilience. \nThe theme\, “The Future of Sustainability”\, challenges us to move beyond harm reduction and embrace a mindset of regeneration\, building institutions\, communities and futures that are resilient\, just and thriving.

SUMMARY:2025 Francis Gurry Lecture on Intellectual Property: livestream
DESCRIPTION:Unlocking Innovation: Balancing Protection and Access\nAs global competition intensifies in artificial intelligence\, quantum computing and other key emerging technologies\, balancing innovation protection with broad access becomes increasingly urgent. \nAddressing community and global challenges—including preparing for future pandemics—requires a nuanced approach that ensures innovations are both safeguarded and shared. To fully harness innovation for economic growth and societal benefit\, we must implement policies that lower barriers and empower broad participation in the innovation ecosystem. \nIn this year’s Lecture\, Kathi Vidal will explore how IP systems can evolve to foster innovation\, drive economic growth\, and maintain technological leadership\, all the while promoting collaboration and avoiding premature or excessive restrictions on ideas. Drawing from her leadership at the USPTO\, she will share insights from her work expanding the innovation economy and advancing balanced IP rights globally.

SUMMARY:Higher Education Summit: Fit for Purpose? The Future of Governance\, Regulation and Impact of the Australian Higher Education Sector
DESCRIPTION:Australia’s higher education sector stands at a critical juncture. One shaped by enduring constitutional tensions embedded within our federated system. Historically\, universities have operated under a delicate balance between Commonwealth funding and oversight\, and state-based legislative and regulatory frameworks. Recent landmark initiative including the Australian Universities Accord\, the formation of Jobs and Skills Australia\, the establishment of the Australian Tertiary Education Commission (ATEC)\, and changes to student migration policy have amplified these inherent complexities\, reshaping the governance and operation of universities nationwide. \nThe Universities Accord and ATEC\, driven by Commonwealth policy\, seeks to redefine the core purpose\, funding structure\, and accountability measures of universities\, challenging traditional state roles and increasing the Commonwealth’s influence. Concurrently\, tightened student migration restrictions create additional resourcing pressures\, compelling universities to reconsider their recruitment strategies\, internationalisation approaches\, and long-term sustainability. \nThese developments provoke critical policy questions: How can governance arrangements be clarified to enhance institutional autonomy while ensuring accountability to national priorities? To what extent does constitutional considerations limit or enable sector-wide innovation and reform? And importantly\, how can policy coordination between Commonwealth and state governments be strengthened to better support universities? \nJoin senior education executives\, policy leaders\, constitutional experts\, and leading academics to navigate these questions\, and explore practical policy pathways for a resilient\, effective\, and purpose-driven Australian higher education system. \nRegister here: Higher Education Summit: Fit for Purpose?
