Strategic Planning Process

In February 2024, The University of Winnipeg began the process to create its next university-wide strategic plan. This plan will provide a solid foundation to ensure UWinnipeg continues to be a community of excellence and innovation for decades to come.

A steering committee has been formed to steward the planning process and, following a competitive search, we have partnered with Higher Education Strategy Associates (HESA) to support the development of our new plan. This highly experienced team has built a strong reputation for guiding academic institutions through strategic planning.

Timeline

Consultations are began in February 2024. The University plans to have finalized the Strategic Plan by the end of fall 2024.

Consultation process

This process includes an extensive consultation phase to ensure the plan accurately reflects the aspirations and priorities of our diverse community.

Consultations include members of our UWinnipeg community—such as faculty, staff, students, administrators, and alumni—and external partners and stakeholders. Insights were also gathered through a survey.

A report was compiled to capture what was heard through the consultations. The University community was invited to review this report and provide feedback to inform the drafting of the strategic plan, which will take place in November.
