Sustain : creating a more inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous future

Since 1895, the generosity of many has sustained the University’s aspirations to create the brightest possible future for all Tasmanians.

With your help, we can continue to enrich the lives of Tasmanians together, and create a more inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous future that stretches well beyond our shores – for Tasmania and from Tasmania.

Through Sustain, our goal is to raise $50 million over 5 years.

This will go towards removing barriers to accessing education, and supporting the University to educate the next generation of quality scientists, creatives, and health professionals.

Your gift, regardless of size, can help fund world-leading research, contribute to a scholarship, support a community/public education program, or strengthen our pathway programs, helping to improve access to education for all.

Whether you are enabling students to realise their full potential, helping to solve the problem of future food security, saving the critically endangered handfish from extinction, or improving clinical outcomes for stroke and heart disease sufferers, your support matters.

Sustain is focusing on 5 key areas of impact, informed by the United Nations Sustainable Development goals. How do you want to change the world?
