Tasmanian Partnership Agreement

Tasmanian Partnership Agreement

A strong and effective relationship between government and the community sector is critical to ensure quality and efficient services can be delivered to Tasmanians in need. The Tasmanian Partnership Agreement:

• commits the signatories to a shared vision, values and purpose
• sets the foundation for continuing collaborative relationships between the community sector and the Tasmanian Government.
• recognises the different but complimentary roles of government and the sector and celebrates the strengths of both partners.

The Agreement is intended to be a living document, maintaining relevance as connections develop and evolve. It aims to continue to improve the working relationship for the benefit of people and communities in Tasmania.
