Sydney Alliance Founding Assembly
Our Involvement in the Sydney Alliance Founding Assembly:
On Thursday evening, the 15th of September, NTEU members from various Universities attended the Sydney Alliance Founding Assembly in Sydney Town Hall. There was also a seminar held in the NSW Division Office prior to attending the Assembly amongst NTEU members to discuss our involvement.
Between 6 and 7pm, Sydney Town Hall was packed full and over 2000 people spilled over the streets, square and footpaths around the town hall.
It was an incredible site seeing the sheer numbers and diversity of people inside. Soon after the Founding Assembly began, the leaders of member organizations spoke in a fast-paced roll call.
Genevieve Kelly, introduced the NTEU and explained the reason why we have joined saying,
“NTEU represents all staff across all Universities in Sydney. We are a founding member of the Sydney Alliance, because our members don’t just want to understand the world, we want to change it. “
