Australian community partnerships
We can work towards sustainability by forming partnerships between individuals,
businesses, charities, community groups, schools, local councils, and
state and federal government.
Some of these successful partnerships that are currently making positive
changes in Australian communities include:
Businesses working with Government
Programs such as The National Packaging Covenant show that government
and industry can make important changes by working together towards the
same sustainable goals.
Businesses working with the community
Organisations such as the Salvation Army Family Stores have shown that
they can run their businesses in a way that not only benefits the environment,
but also helps people in their communities.
Individuals working together in the community
All over Australia, there are all sorts of local community programs that
you can get involved in to help you make your contribution to a more sustainable
future.
