Media Release 7 April 2022

Research roadmap important step to prosperity

“We welcome the release today of the National Research Infrastructure Roadmap, which acknowledges the centrality of research to Australia’s future prosperity,” Universities Australia’s Chief Executive Catriona Jackson said.

“The roadmap encourages long-term, strategic thinking to maximise the contribution of Australia’s research and innovation system to social, environmental and economic outcomes.”

“We are pleased to see the acknowledgement of the humanities, arts and social sciences as equal and essential contributors to these very outcomes.”

“We know that every dollar invested into university research returns $5 to the economy, so we are pleased to see the recognition of stable, long-term funding as instrumental to our research system’s success.”

“Carefully planned investment into Australian research drives new breakthroughs, delivers enormous benefits to our society, and cements Australia’s place in the global exchange of knowledge and ideas.”

“We look forward to the release of the government’s detailed response to the roadmap.”
