Funded Activity Summary

Exploring new opportunities for Local Government to facilitate innovative partnership options that link social, economic and employment development. The project seeks to formulate an expanded role for Australian Local Government in light of OECD debates on localism in the formation of partnerships for economic, employment and social development. It will redress the under-utilisation of Local Government's specific knowledge and resources that could facilitate economic, employment and social development, particularly in disadvantaged communities. In addition to the theoretical and practical knowledge gained regarding localism and partnerships, which has immediate community benefit, it is expected that the project's outcomes will have the potential to be transferable to other Local Government jurisdictions in Australia and hence be of national benefit.
