We are an independent member-based charity peak body dedicated to building flourishing communities by enhancing the extraordinary work of Australia’s not-for-profit sector. We do this by changing the way governments, communities and the not-for-profit sector relate to one another. In particular, this includes establishing a regulatory environment that works for charities and community organisations – not against them.
Charities and not-for-profits aren’t front and centre of the growing public discourse about a productivity reform agenda, but that shouldn’t stop us from offering a few possibilities that might make a difference to the kind of Australia we live in writes CCA CEO David Crosbie for the Community Advocate.
The bottom line is that if we want to provide more productive and effective services across our sector, we will need to invest in better measurement, writes CCA CEO David Crosbie for the Community Advocate.
The solutions necessary to change the sector for the better are well known. It’s finding the money that’s the problem. CCA CEO David Crosbie outlines a solution gaining traction in Canada in the Community Advocate.
We need to push back against the idea that we are less productive if we are healthier, better educated, better housed and cared for… Our sector can and should be part of shaping the national productivity agenda. The alternative is we allow it to shape us writes CCA CEO David Crosbie for the Community Advocate.
