About the review

Our departmental strategic review helps us evaluate our current position, set our future direction, and create a framework to measure our progress. This internal review precedes the University's departmental review (due in 2026) and gives us an opportunity to:

  • Celebrate our achievements and identify what's working well
  • Assess changes in the healthcare landscape and emerging needs
  • Identify opportunities and gaps in our portfolio
  • Refine how we present ourselves and our work
  • Review our current activities and priorities
  • Guide decisions about structure, recruitment and investment

Executive Summary of our Strategic Plan 2025-2030

The Executive Summary of our Strategic Plan sets out how we will work with local, national, and international partners to strengthen primary health care teaching, research and innovation, and advocacy over the next five years.  

Please do take time to read it and reflect on how it connects with your own work and the wider University Strategy. Nicola Small and Karina O’Neill are leading the strategy implementation and would welcome your feedback. We will communicate more information about the implementation plan over the coming weeks.  

Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far whether through involvement in the Working Groups, or by offering feedback during the consultation phase; your ideas have shaped this plan and our direction over the coming years.
