Regional Development Australia – Northern Rivers and Northern Rivers Social Development Council are working together to develop a social plan for our region.
What do we know about our region? Who are our communities?
What are our strengths, differences and common interests?
What changes do we want to make to the region for the future?
The project involves three stages:
A snapshot of our region – bringing together data to develop a regional social profile on topics including employment, housing, civic participation, transport, health and education.
Community engagement – a series of activities to gather community perspectives on our region and our social priorities for the future.
Creating a regional social plan – that will be available for public comment and promoted to government, community organisations and groups.
All information gathered will be publicly available via an online repository to inform short and medium term planning processes and build social inclusion, community participation, and responsiveness of community services. To find out more about how to have your say about the future of our region, contact regionalsocialplan@nrsdc.org.au
The regional social plan will be available by August 2013.
The Northern Rivers comprises the seven Local Government Areas of Ballina, Byron, Clarence Valley, Kyogle, Lismore, Richmond Valley and Tweed Shire.
