Community Relations Resource Kit

This Resource Kit has been developed by the Queensland Government Department of Premier and Cabinet as a reference guide for practitioners in the field of community relations. It is relevant to all practitioners, not just in Queensland

The kit is based on the Community Relations Plan, which was developed by the Queensland Government Working Group on Community Relations and launched by the Premier in March 2000.

The Resource Kit begins by suggesting some broad principles to underpin the process of community relations planning.

An overview of the practical steps involved in developing a community relations plan is then provided.

These broad principles and practical steps are designed to guide practitioners embarking on a community relations planning process.

Snapshots of good practice initiatives are then presented to provide practical examples of community relations good practice.

It is hoped that these good practice examples will assist organisations, practitioners, community groups and individuals to explore and develop new initiatives in community relations work.

The kit also includes:

• A glossary of community relations terms
• Relevant legislation in Australian federal and state governments and selected governments overseas
• Useful links on the internet
