The Forum of Non-Government Agencies (FONGA) endorsed the final Charter
for the NSW Community Sector at its meeting on 7 October 2011.
The Charter has been prepared to define and communicate to other sectors
of society (governments, business and the broader community) what the
community sector is, and to raise awareness of its vital role and
invaluable contribution to society.
The Charter promotes a unified community sector by presenting a shared
identity, vision and values. It is intended to empower community
organisations across NSW by providing a vehicle for asserting a strong
collective voice, and in doing so, increase our influence towards
achieving our vision of a fair and just society for all.
NCOSS has written to all FONGA members seeking their organisational
endorsement of the Charter and agreement to use their logo in the
published version. The document will be updated regularly to incorporate
endorsing organisations' logos.
Organisations in the sector are free to use the text of the Charter in
their own work, provided that it is not altered and that the document is
acknowledged as the work of FONGA and NCOSS.
