Listening to communities nationwide
Through webinars, workshops, conferences and other initiatives, you can connect with other practitioners and policymakers in the place-based sector. Through connecting and learning together, we create lasting a impact across Australia.
Here, you’ll find highlights from our recent national Listening Tour, which brought us together with over 50 communities and set the course for our future work. Discover details about our ongoing History Project, capturing the knowledge of place-based leaders, or join us for our upcoming conferences and webinars designed to connect and share practical insights.
A platform for learning, connection and community
PLACE’s new and free online learning and community platform. In place-based work, so much of what we know lives in people, in relationships, in programs, and in communities. That deep knowledge is one of the great strengths of this work, and is delivering real impact to people’s lives in their communities
PLACExCHANGE is an expression of that: a shared digital space designed around how people learn best – through trial, trust, through doing the work together, and sharing the knowledge and experiences that create impact in communities every day.
