Office for the Community & Voluntary Sector,
The Statement of Government Intentions for an Improved Community-Government Relationship is driving the OCVS team’s approach to three key collaborative projects underway in our 2007/08 work programme.
The projects will address challenging issues highlighted again and again by the community and voluntary sector. Each project will be led by a working group made up of community and government stakeholders who will shape the terms of reference, priorities and approach as each project progresses.
In the OCVS, we have assigned a specific team member to each project, however we’ll also be ensuring that there is cross fertilisation of ideas and learnings amongst the three working groups, and the whole OCVS team will be involved in elements of each project.
The three collaborative projects (and the assigned OCVS staff members) are:
Each project is progressing at a different speed and involving different stakeholders as appropriate to the topic. Each will also find new ways of seeking wider input to identifying solutions and the way forward. Real progress will only be made with involvement from the sector at national and grassroots levels, local and central government officials, and where appropriate, business and academia.
We’ll add information on the OCVS website in coming weeks about the working groups and how you can be involved in the projects, if you aren't already.
If you are keen to be more actively involved, please contact a member of the OCVS team.
