2010 August

Welcome to our third edition of Partnership Insights for 2010, where we provide a brief update on how we are supporting Partnership Councils in the primary health care sector in Queensland.

We also explore the impacts of partnering beyond the initial purpose and how to create a safe space for those difficult conversations that can often hinder the development of a partnership especially in the early stages.

In addition, we also provide some information about an exciting new contest for school children called 'Design for Change' which is open to all schools in Australia right now.

As usual we also provide the latest on our current training programs on offer and look forward to your feedback on issues for future editions.
