Overview
Developing sound policy,
delivering effective services &
achieving positive outcomes
Governments around Australia have committed to 'Closing the Gap' and improving the lives of Indigenous Australians. The development of sound policy and its translation into effective and valued services is crucial to this.
While we are making progress in this area, it's fair to say that this is still very much a 'work-in-progress'.
Linking Indigenous Policy with Service Delivery 2011 will explore what policy practitioners and service deliverers can do to ensure the development of sound policy that carries through into effective services; and, ultimately, improves outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians.
With a focus on core priorities like health, housing, education, employment, justice and remote services, this conference will leave attendees better placed to ensure success, wherever they sit on the policy/service delivery spectrum.
It's not often that policy practitioners and service deliverers can get together to explore how they can be more effective in their roles, work more effectively together and, ultimately, bring us closer to 'Closing the Gap'. Don't miss out on the chance to join this important conversation!
You will learn:
- Where we go wrong and what is needed to improve policy development and service delivery
- How to build stronger partnerships (between policy practitioners, service deliverers and communities) to underpin effective policy/program design and delivery
- How to actively engage communities in the decision-making and delivery process, and build community ownership
- How to measure the effectiveness of initiatives to ensure continual improvement
