The Town Team annual State Conference is more than just a talk fest. Its about living and embodying the Town Team principles through immersive experience. Its about learning through doing. Its about being and doing Place rather than simply talking about Place. In 2021 we aim to explore the concept of “Act Local’ and how Town Teams and governments at all levels can play an expanding role in facilitating more connected and resilient communities through positive action.

TOPICS INCLUDE:
• Place Leadership & Management
• Creative Engagement Techniques
• Community challenges & the role of Government
• Understanding & Celebrating Heritage and the arts
• The Power of Storytelling and vision making
• Economic & Community Development Embracing Technology
