Harnessing ACU member expertise to support Commonwealth member states in translating policy into action.
As the only accredited organisation representing Higher Education in the Commonwealth, the ACU has long championed the vital contribution of universities to sustainable development in high-level engagements with Commonwealth governments and education ministers.
Leveraging this accredited status, the ACU has established new Expert Groups to strengthen links into different Commonwealth government departments, harnessing member expertise to advance policy priorities in key thematic areas and build strategic partnerships with policymakers, civil society, practitioner bodies and ACU members to support their implementation.
Thematic areas
ACU Expert Groups have been purposefully designed to align with key Commonwealth policy mandates and ministerial forums in:
- Oceans
- Health
- Sustainable Urbanisation
