As we draw towards the end of this extraordinary year, I want to thank you for your ongoing interest in, and support of, Griffith University. We have been very lucky in Queensland to be spared the worst of the health crisis, but our thoughts have been with our extended Griffith community in parts of the world where the cost has been much higher. We hope that next year will be a brighter one for us all.

Reflecting on the year we will never forget
Despite the life changing implications of a global pandemic, there have been many wonderful achievements and firsts in the global Griffith University Alumni program. It has involved developing a range of new skills to deliver the majority of the program online, not only for our Alumni Relations team but for our wonderful alumni guest speakers and volunteers who so generously provided opportunities for their fellow alumni to learn, engage and enjoy.
