Making Community Governance Work for You and Your Communities

Community or neighbourhood governance is emerging as an important new way in which governments works with communities and neighbourhoods.

This one day workshop will provide an overview of good practice internationally looking at both statutory and non-statutory forms of community governance. It will show how different stakeholders are taking the lead ranging from councils, to higher tiers of government to the private sector, all focused on working with communities to improve community outcomes.

At the end of the workshop you will have a good understanding of the options available for you and your agency. Benefits will include learning how community governance can assist the better management of programmes and expenditure, improve relationships with citizens and communities, and enable better outcomes for your communities.
