These are challenging times for us all.
Internationally, we have war in Ukraine; nationally, we have a cost of living crisis; and locally, we have political uncertainty over whether a devolved government will be formed following the recent Northern Ireland election.
While the former two issues impact deeply on us all, it is the latter that impacts directly and specifically on the future success of Queen’s University, Belfast.
And the difficult aspect for us is that even if an Executive Government is formed, our challenges will not dissipate. We are facing the perfect storm, through lack of investment and education migration that must be tackled urgently.
