This community meeting will be an opportunity for the Vice Chancellor to inform the community of the University's proposals in its recently produced "Green Paper" about its future. Included in the paper is the statement that “We believe that a coordinated strategy for engagement with the local community should be devised and implemented as a matter of priority.” You can download the paper from: www.usyd.edu.au/about/strategy/green_paper/index.shtml

REDWatch has arranged this meeting with Sydney University to begin discussions with Darlington, Redfern and Waterloo residents about how the community and the University can work together for mutual benefit.

While it is expected there will be some discussion about the University's interest in the North Eveleigh site, their proposal to develop the Abercrombie St - Codrington St - Darlington St block and eventually redevelop much of the existing Darlington campus these will not be the main focus of this meeting.

A further meeting, organised by Sydney University, will be held at Track B - Carriage Works on Wednesday, 28 April 2010 from 6.30-8.00pm to start a discussion with the community about North Eveleigh, including the University’s interest in renewing the site.  This meeting will provide opportunities for the community and interested politicians to have their say about North Eveleigh.

Note on Sydney University Settlement Neighbourhood Centre - The Settlement is a Neighbourhood Centre with its own Act of Parliament. While it shares the name with Sydney University it is not part of the University being formed originally by the students from Women's College at Sydney University and was led, until the 1960s, by societies auspiced by the Union and was supported by the voluntary efforts of academics, their families and undergraduates. While independant of the University it still has a University representative on its Management Comittee acknowledging its past association - for more information on the history of the Settlement visit - http://thesettlement.org.au/History
