Governance
As a not-for-profit member-led organisation, our members make ‘big picture’ decisions, including whether to change our governing constitution (including its purpose), the appointment of directors and decisions about winding up the organisation.
As an Australian Company Limited by Guarantee and a registered charity under The Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission, ACTS is committed to maintaining transparent and accountable governance practices. Here, you can explore our organisation’s constitution, which outlines the fundamental principles that guide our operations, as well as our strategic vision, which directs our efforts towards a sustainable future.
We invite you to explore these essential documents to gain a deeper understanding of ACTS’ governance framework and our dedication to our vision of campus based organisations leading the transformation toward a sustainable future that is fair, just and equitable for all.
Annual General Meeting
Our Annual General Meeting (AGM) is a important date in the ACTS calendar, providing a platform to engage with our valued members and stakeholders. It is a time when we come together to celebrate our successes over the past year, highlighting our achievements and reporting on our strategic and financial outcomes for the year. Beyond the celebration, the AGM also offers our members a vital voice in shaping the future of ACTS. It is an opportunity to actively participate in the governance of our organisation, where members have the important role of voting for the directors who will lead our Board and guide our strategic direction.
The next AGM will take place on Thursday 19 November, 2026, 12pm AEDT | 2pm NZDT.
Voting members will receive a direct invitation to attend. Non-voting Members are invited to register to attend.
Nominations to join the ACTS board are currently open. Learn more and nominate here.
