- Description: From Foreword by Dr Sizwe Mabizela: 2022 was a year in which Rhodes University reviewed its purpose and reimagined its future. All stakeholders, ranging from current students and staff, to alumni, collaborators, community partners, councillors, governors and funders, were invited to participate in the process of reflection and reimagination, and to craft a new roadmap. This culminated in the University Council adopting a revised Institutional Development Plan (IDP) at its final meeting of 2022.

- Description: From Foreword by Dr Sizwe Mabizela: Rhodes University offers its students, researchers, and collaborators a rich and distinctive intellectual space. One of its differentiators is that it is the only South African research intensive university situated in a rural area. Moreover, Rhodes University is located in an impoverished region bedevilled with high levels of poverty and unemployment. This relatively unique characteristic has significant implications for the way its mandate as a research-led institution is fulfilled, and will continue to be fulfilled in the future. The relatively unique context of Rhodes University is played out in the nexus of research, teaching and learning, and community engagement. Engaged research is a significant feature of our knowledge production, and we strive to make ourselves simultaneously locally responsive and globally connected. The award by the Talloires Global Network of Engaged Universities of the prestigious MacJannet Prize to Rhodes University’s Nine-Tenths Programme in 2021 was wonderful affirmation of our strategy to be locally impactful while also being globally influential.

- Description: From Foreword by Dr Sizwe Mabizela: This was a year like no other in living memory. Since March 2020, our institution has been operating under COVID-19 pandemic conditions, in various levels of lockdown, with a blend on-line and physical activities. Research-based postgraduate students were amongst the first to return in May 2020, as lockdown levels permitted, particularly those whose work was dependent upon access to physical resources of the campus.

- Description: From Foreword by Dr Sizwe Mabizela: Overarching our Institutional Transformation Plan are four core operational principles that guide our intellectual community and are intended to permeate every aspect of the life of our University. These are: 1. Sustainability - conceptualised and understood in the broadest possible sense, and not just environmental or financial sustainability; 2. Being simultaneously locally responsive and relevant, as well as globally engaged, so that we can enter the global knowledge system from our own position of strength and thereby enrich the accumulated stock of knowledge; 3. The advancement of social jus-tice; and 4. The public good purpose and value of higher education. These core principles are intended to be embedded into our teaching and learning, research, community engagement, and every aspect of the life of our University. The pages of this report outline the strong research trajectory that Rhodes University is on, which gives effect to these prin-ciples with increasing degrees of engaged research, and partner collabo-rations on the African continent and beyond. Rhodes University is very fortunate to have outstanding, dedicated and committed academic and support staff who take a deep and keen interest in the growth, develop-ment and academic success of each and every one of our students, as well as in the social and natural environment that surrounds us. The re-sults of the 2018 academic year were celebrated during a bumper grad-uation weekend in April 2019, in which a total of 2321 graduates were capped at six graduation ceremonies, 46% of whom were Postgraduates, 61% were women, and 19% were international students.
