Tariana Turia | Budget 2011
Community and Voluntary Sector Minister Tariana Turia today announced a new initiative to support community-led development.
The announcement was made on Radio Waatea this morning. Community-led development puts communities at the centre of funding decisions and it allows the Government opportunity to invest in communities in a holistic way, rather than merely funding individual organisations and projects. It empowers local communities to generate local solutions to local problems.
