ANU launches review into investment portfolio after pro-Palestine protests

The Australian National University is launching a review into its investment portfolio, acknowledging “changing expectations” in the community around deriving revenue from weapons manufacturers.

“This is not an issue for ANU but across the university sector. Changing community sentiment requires new considerations for the university’s invest­ment portfolio.” Freedom of information disclosures published this week show ANU refused to adopt a controversial definition of antisemitism after receiving internal advice that it would compromise academic freedom.

“The ‘safeguarding and implementation of ANU academic freedom policy’ consistent with our obligations to the wellbeing of ANU staff and students would be most effectively achieved by no such change being made to that policy or any other of our existing suite of policies and procedures,” the internal advice read.
