The Interface Facilitation Team

The Interface Facilitation Team supports central and local government working together for community outcomes.

The Team works to develop and improve relationships between local authorities and central government agencies, and encourage central government engagement in community outcomes.

We do this by:

• connecting central and local government people involved in community outcomes
• supporting interagency relationships, meetings and work
• collecting and sharing information about working together, including good practice examples
• building understanding about the community outcomes process
• running an annual community outcomes workshop.

Relationship Managers

The Interface Facilitation Team has relationship managers based around the country, promoting and supporting contact and collaboration between local and central government. Our Relationship Managers work at the interface between local and central government to promote an integrated approach to community outcomes.
