The 'Our Universities Matter' campaign was launched by the National Tertiary Education Union (NTEU) in 2008.

Its aim was to reinvigorate Australia’s universities with:

  • Achieving higher levels of government funding and better funding mechanisms.
  • Protecting university independence and freedom of inquiry.
  • Controls on excessive workloads.
  • Better job security.
  • Competitive pay rise for university staff.
  • Affordable education and improved student services.
