ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´

Scaling our excellence in human flourishing

ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ invests in the human capital that underpins Australia's social fabric. We form the teachers, nurses and allied health professionals essential to the nation's future workforce. We rank among the global leaders in disciplines central to human flourishing, including education, nursing, psychology, philosophy, theology and religious studies, and sport and exercise science. And we are growing our graduate research cohort to equip the next generation to address society's most urgent challenges.

To advance our leadership in human flourishing, however, we must now build additional institutional capability to translate our excellence in foundational research and research training into mission-aligned programs-harnessing strengths across disciplines and campuses, preparing the ground for large-scale projects and commercialisation, and deepening strategic partnerships with key collaborators to extend our policy influence and scale human flourishing solutions.

Globalising human flourishing

Leveraging this stronger foundation, ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ will become a recognised world leader in human flourishing, known for translating mission-driven research into tangible social policy and entrepreneurial outcomes.

Through faculty-led themes, ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ will build critical mass in areas where we can shape global agendas and influence systems that matter to human flourishing. We will expand our sphere of influence across Southeast Asia and the broader Asia-Pacific through place-based partnerships, bilateral programs and regionally relevant innovation. And we will develop large, multi-partner initiatives that translate research into policy reform and responsible commercial ventures ensuring that our scholarship delivers impact at scale. By 2033, this approach will deliver sustained excellence across the research value chain and position ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ as a trusted global leader in service of a flourishing humanity.
