BEING WESTMINSTER An Introduction from the Vice-Chancellor and President, Dr Peter Bonfield.
OUR CAMPUSES
Our Being Westminster strategy is our guiding light, shaping and steering us collectively as a community of colleagues, students, alumni and partners. Since we cocreated and launched Being Westminster in 2018, our strategy has set us fair to respond to local and global challenges and make progress in the areas in which we aim to excel and that matter most to us – through innovation, enterprise and our uniquely Westminster approach to working together and problem-solv- ing. We have, as a community, looked at our strategy through a refreshed lens, reviewing what has gone well and what we need to change, redefining our ambitions to create Being Westminster 2022 - 2029. The world and environment within which we operate has also changed, with a different UK and world political landscape, the impact of the pandemic, the ever-increasing role of technologies, growing focus on health and wellbeing and more awareness of and commit- ment to changes to address sustainable development. This learning and these changed landscapes bring both chal- lenges and opportunities, and the refined focus this refreshed strategy sets out will help us navigate our way through and towards a sustainable future together. We are a university where discoveries are made, barriers are broken, diversity is celebrated and where everyone is wel- come. We are seeking to make the world a more inclusive, sustainable, better and healthier place through our education- al, research and knowledge exchange endeavours. Since our founding in 1838 we have stood out as innovators, committed to tackling social inequalities and making the world a better place. As we focus forward to 2029, we will contin- ue to do so in a way that is true to our progressive, compas- sionate and responsible values. Our education offer will be more personalised and authentic, giving students from all backgrounds an opportunity of trans- formative learning, helping them succeed in their studies and professional lives. Our curriculum will be employability-linked, leading to stronger outcomes and helping prepare our gradu- ates for the world of work and for life. They will have transferable skills and be citizens who con- tribute positively to their local, national and international communities. Our new employability centre will be a London beacon, connecting businesses to new talent in uniquely innovative ways, leading to success for our graduates.
around the world in an environment where everyone is in- spired to succeed. Our international outlook and global Uni- versity community in London and with our partners will bring our Westminster perspective to global challenges and make a positive contribution, including in our local communities as a civic university. Committed to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, we will continue to build on our special position with our campuses in the heart of London and in Harrow with all the energy that brings, set in one of the world’s most dynamic, creative, diverse and inspiring cities. We will continue to build on our amazing physical and digital spaces that inspire learning, provide a strong sense of community and the best possible experience – with our University as a place that people and all those connected with us love to inhabit. Our priorities of wellbeing, inclusion and sustainable devel- opment will help us as we navigate through the challenges and opportunities towards 2029. Each one of us has distinct talents and we will continue to support everyone in an envi- ronment where creativity and innovation flourish to deliver the best results for us all. Being Westminster sets us apart. In our University, we value social justice, moral conscience, inclusivity and equality, act- ing positively together to make change for good. We have much to be proud of in our achievements together through Being Westminster. I am confident that the ambitious and inspirational plans in our refreshed strategy will help lead us to continued success, ensuring our Westminster difference makes a positive impact on our communities around the world.
