Community development

Last Updated Nov 2011

Strong communities are inclusive. They embrace cultural diversity, have strong social networks between people, and have good facilities and infrastructure. We work with local communities, non-government partners, local, state and federal government agencies and business to create community capacity and spirit.

One of the key partnerships is through the Stronger Together Agreement.
