Regional community arts
organisations and individuals are encouraged to provide their endorsement and/or
comments on a nationally coordinated submission to the Australia Council's Planning
for the Future Taskforce which must be finalised this Wednesday.
Produced by the National
Arts and Culture Alliance (NACA) - a national coalition of CCD organisations,
agencies, community groups and individual practitioners (which includes Regional
Arts NSW) - the document is a detailed response to the Australia Council's proposed
restructure which was announced last December.
In particular, the submission
focuses on the revised model for the establishment of Community Partnerships section
of the Australia Council's latest proposal.
The preparation of the
submission follows both protracted negotiations by NACA members with the Australia
Council as well as a number of long meetings and workshops involving the CCD field
and the Australia Council. During this time the CCD sector has consistently expressed
three key concerns:
the need for effective consultation with the field prior to the implementation
of any restructure of the Australia Council,
the desire for a commitment
to current levels of funding for CCD work by the Australia Council and
an undertaking by the
Australia Council to evaluate the restucture in the future.
ENDORSE
