AM session -- Partnership : Service Planning & Funding Arrangement PM session -- Parallel Workshop I : Local Experience in Partnership in Community Care PM session -- Parallel Workshop II : NGO's response to the new public fund allocation mechanism
For many years, the NGO sector and the Government have been working closely as partners in Community Care. In recent years, the Government has introduced various welfare reforms in service planning and funding arrangements. It is indeed time for us to have some discussion on the progress and to explore forms of partnership between the Government and the NGO sector. In this
symposium, we have invited two Australian speakers to share with
us their experiences. In late 1999, the Minister for Community Services
for the Victorian Government announced the establishment of the
Community Care Review to develop a new framework for Community Care
that fosters partnerships. The two speakers will share with us their
new initiatives in Partnerships, both from the angle of funding
arrangement and service planning. We have also invited
Mrs Carrie Lam, DSW, to share with us the Hong Kong Government’s
considerations in public fund allocations and partnerships with
NGO sector. The Hon Dr C.K. Law will then respond
to the speakers and comment on the implications to
The afternoon session will be a local sharing on the two
important areas : Partnerships in community care and public fund allocations.
Representatives from the Government and NGOs have been invited to
share and to spark off this meaningful discussion. Date :
