Strategic Plan

In order to ensure the viability and sustainability of U3A Melbourne City, we engage in a strategic planning process every three years. The plan is overseen by the Committee of Management and is implemented through the work of a number of working parties.

The Committee of Management has agreed three strategic priorities for 2019-21:

Increase and diversify our membership to about 1500 by promoting our U3A and expanding partnerships.
Tackle the shortage and burnout of volunteers, including tutors.
Increase our total revenue by 25% from FY 2019 to FY 2021.

The new rules were approved by Consumer Affairs Victoria, effective from 10 January 2014, and a revision to the rules of committee membership made in 2015
