Roundtables and communities of practice

We bring our practice wisdom into partnerships and collaborate with communities to share two-way insights and knowledge.

Resilience Community of Practice

The Resilience Community of Practice (RCOP) brings together metropolitan, regional, and rural practitioners from community services, community health and local government across Victoria. It was established to share learnings and support strong partnerships and cross-collaboration between organisations across Victoria, to strengthen resilience efforts and reorient systems towards climate equity.

Place-based Action Research Community of Practice (the Real Deal Project)

The Centre has joined together with the Sydney Policy Lab and its Real Deal project, the Centre for People, Place and Planet at Edith Cowan University, and Australia Together to run a nationwide community of practice on place-based action and research.

Roundtable on place and social disadvantage

The Centre has joined with the Brotherhood of St Laurence – Social Policy and Research Centre (SPARC) and ARC Centre for Excellence for Children and Families over the Life Course at Melbourne University to run a series of roundtables which explore the potential of place-based, community-led initiatives and policies for addressing disadvantage and promoting equity and sustainability.
