Calling all retired Council employees. Posted: 16 Nov 2009 09:54 PM PST OK, so probably a lot of recently retired Council employees, will be out travelling or fishing or just relaxing down the beach, and the last thing on their minds will be their former career, but it has occurred to me that some of the information locked away in their heads could be very valuable to those still employed in Local Government, and I would like to personally invite any former Council employees, who have done enough fishing/travelling/relaxing/playing with their grand kids for a while, to contribute some of their knowledge to this wiki. Is there anyone out there who falls into this category & would like to help? Forum category: General / General Forum thread: Calling all retired Council employees. |

Australian Community Wiki Network Posted: 16 Nov 2009 09:45 PM PST One of the main objectives of this site is to try and find ways to help Councils help themselves by making it easy for them to collaborate & share information with each other. Another opportunity for collaboration is between Councils and their communities. The Australian Community Wiki Network has been set up with this in mind. It will be a place for community, sporting & other groups to tell their communities where they are and what they do, and to share information with other similar groups around Australia. It is a work-in-progress at this point in time, with only a dozen or so wikis created so far, but hopefully with time it will become a good resource for Australian communities, and possibly a neutral place where councils can interact and consult with their ratepayers. For now if you belong to a community or sporting club of some description, why not give it a visit, and give your group a free plug?

Re: Australian Community Wiki Network Posted: 17 Nov 2009 08:50 PM PST G'Day Darron. I agree with everything you say. It isn't a part of the LGAM Wiki, and it does have its own identity & structure. It is a big, big project, so there is no way I will be able to do it all by myself, but I have been trying to work on it a little bit each night, with a view to getting a framework in place. Once the framework is in place, I will try and develop the Bundaberg wiki as an example of what other communities can do, but it from there on I will be relying on people & community groups in other areas to grow it. I would have thought there would be quite a few groups & businesses that would be interested in a bit of free advertising and networking opportunities, but I guess only time will tell. |
