March 2005
The Community Sector Taskforce’s job is to establish a new entity to coordinate and be a focal point for community, voluntary and Tangata Whenua organisations on Sector wide issues.
The entity is starting to look good:
Our entity is made up of the links with the regions, sectors and grass roots of the Community and Voluntary Sector.
Being non-aligned and independent of government, our entity will structure itself so that the involvement and participation of Tangata Whenua will reflect their role and status as Tiriti/Treaty partners. This will be a benefit to all parts of the Community and Voluntary Sector.
The work programme between now and June is as follows:
- Develop Tiriti/Treaty 2 house model (including operating guidelines)
- Develop and implement an effective communications strategy including electronic and website usage.
- Encourage active input into the development of the new entity by people involved in community, voluntary and Tangata Whenua organisations
- Also ensure the active input and participation of ethnic and Pacific communities, and umbrella and national organisations
- Encourage the development of sector wide priority issues and capacity building needs for the new Trust to work on
- Finalise the Trust Deed for the Community & Voluntary Sector Manaakitanga Trust, plan for and appoint the inaugural Trustees
- Encourage people to nominate Trustees and support a representative gathering at the AGM in May.
- Conduct the first Annual General Meeting of the new Trust.
