Community building is about local people working with government to strengthen their communities and improve the places in which they live.
It is also about government listening to what local people have to say and supporting them to develop projects that achieve their goals.
The Centre for Rural Communities works to support communities - and provide training for community development workers - to build skills and confidence to develop solutions to local issues.
The Centre has already initiated or participated in a range of projects that have helped to transform rural communities.
These are some of those stories.
