Funded Activity Summary

Maximising the contribution of NGOs in a new planning framework for community services provision. This interdisciplinary study will investigate how the contribution of NGOs in a new planning framework for community services can be maximised. This is important as the Friedman Results Accountability Planning Framework is being adopted in NSW for whole-of-government, cross-sector, regionalised planning. Using participatory action research, this first Australian study will test and develop the framework's capability to bring forward, value and fully utilise the knowledge of diverse communities and organisations. The research will open up possibilities not only for streamlining and delivering better human services but also for developing social capital with strong applications for social policy and local government.
