Community Sector Model and Framework for Sustainable Funding and Accountability within Communities

In 2007, the Community Sector Taskforce applied its base position set out in ‘A New Way of Working’ to the issue of Sector funding and accountability. This paper, with the title ‘Community Sector Model and Framework for Sustainable Funding and Accountability within Communities’ was tabled at the Community: Government Forum on 20-21 June 2007. It is an advocacy position articulated on behalf of the many different voices in the Tangata Whenua, Community and Voluntary Sector in Aotearoa New Zealand, and sets out a different approach to the framing, analysis and action that could be taken on the issue of community funding and accountability in a post-modernist and post-colonial society.
