RaymondPierreL3<p>We need more public exposure to the dire circumstances our <a href="https://aus.social/tags/TertiarySector" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TertiarySector</span></a> is facing due to the flawed thinking of neolineralism. Education (from pre-school to post doctoral) is the backbone of a thriving and vibrant society. Only through better education can we become the Australia we all so richly deserve. A highly educated society is also the antidote to the current rise of authoritarianism and fascist populism. Education is the armor we wear to safeguard our social democracy.

The neoliberal thinking that education can be run like a business and that markets would somehow nurture and develop educational institutions (in the economic sense) is shown, well and truly, to be a delusion. </p><p>The sector needs to be fully funded from the public purse and left to its previous collegiate form of governance.
