Not for Profit meets Business Enterprise - A village in every suburb
Opportunity and financial sustainability can be realised when not-for- profits and businesses collaborate. Explore a future where cities and suburbs are more interconnected and where vibrant local communities enhance the wellbeing of all who belong to them.
Women's Community Centre SA will propose a model for a pilot project and explore the role of not-for- profits, big corporations, Local Governments and the community in creating that future.
Through a panel discussion, we will explore how the model could be implemented locally and replicated nationally, the challenges that would need to be overcome and the unexpected benefits that could arise from an innovative new approach.
This event is free. Registration is required.
