Hunter Community Alliance
Organising for the common good of the Hunter Region.
Our Mission
Our Alliance brings together diverse community organisations, environmental groups, unions and religious organisations to advance the common good and achieve fair, just and sustainable cities and regions. We do this by providing opportunities for people to have a say in decisions that affect them, their families and everyone working and living in our cities and regions. We are a non-party political organisation. Our membership represents about 250,000 people in the Hunter region.
National Advanced Community Organiser Training - 6 Day
The National Training (6-Day) is a program for people committed to understanding the craft of community organising - who want to play a key role in leading the activities of the Alliance inside their organisation and acting as a bridge between our member organisations.
The residential course builds a close community of leaders across participating civil society organisations that represent the diversity of our Alliances in Sydney, Hunter Valley and Queensland. This training is also open to those seeding new Alliances across Australia.
Leaders are equipped with the tools they need to be more strategic and effective and to build and strengthen their organisations in the process. The course focuses on power, organisations, relationships and leadership.
