Social Inclusion Agenda: call for comment on national compact
The Social Inclusion Agenda is a whole-of-government approach to addressing disadvantage and reducing social exclusion so that all Australians have an opportunity to play a full role in all aspects of Australian life. The agenda recognises the critical role the not-for-profit sector plays in delivering services, advising and developing social policy, and advocating on behalf of marginalised groups. A strong relationship between the government and the sector will be crucial to the success of the agenda and related reforms.
The Department is now calling for comment on the development of a national compact between the Australian Government and the not-for-profit sector.
