10. How to participate in #shapeRMIT Face-to-face events and workshops let you connect with your peers, imagine the future you’d like to see, and brainstorm ideas for action to shape the future of RMIT. Aug 10 Go to events and workshops The #shapeRMIT strategy team will be hosting online discussions about the key theme already emerging for the strategy. You will also be able to start your own discussion groups if you wish. Our unique discussion tool will let you make proposals to your peers, for them to vote on. Join online discussions Ideas for action are structured proposals that can be put forward for consideration during the strategy process, and could become part of the action plans that will translate the strategy into outcomes over the next five years. Through the #shapeRMIT project, the university commits to considering all ideas for action that are generated, making them transparent, and giving a clear response to all of them as to whether and how it can be adopted, and on what grounds. Share ideas for action We’re keeping a blog lots of picture and video about the process as it unfolds. This is a great way to catch up on the story so far, and get a deeper sense of the how the RMIT community is shaping its own future. Follow the news As the strategy continues to take shape through the work of the #shapeRMIT project team, we’ll be sharing more and more of our thinking. We plan to have a full draft for your review in before the strategy is submitted to council. Use this to inform your discussions and ideas for action. Read the strategy To reach everyone and make real changes, we’ll need leaders from across the RMIT community. Catalysts run events, generate news items, facilitate discussion groups, and lead the charge on generating and sharing powerful ideas for action. Becoming a catalyst starts with downloading our catalyst kit, and coming along to one of our events to learn more. Become a catalyst
