Burnie Change Agenda - Service Provider Symposium

Event Summary: Burnie Regional Service Providers Symposium 2025

Burnie Regional Service Providers Symposium
16–17 February 2025
Theme: Unpacking the Burnie Community Change Agenda 2025 → 2030

Join us for a two day symposium bringing together government and non-government service providers from across the Burnie region to explore the findings of the Burnie Community Change Agenda 2025 → 2030 and strengthen cross-sector collaboration for the future.

This event will provide a unique opportunity for organisations to:

• Gain a clear understanding of the regional priorities identified through the Community Change Agenda.

• Build meaningful relationships with fellow providers, funders, and community partners.

• Participate in practical workshops designed to identify gaps, co-design solutions, and shape future collaborative projects.

Across the two days, attendees will hear presentations from Burnie Works, Connected Beginnings Burnie, philanthropic funders, and community representatives. Interactive sessions, including program “speed dating,” sector-based deep dives, and facilitated co-design activities aimed to support mapping current services, identifying shared priorities, and develop early-stage collaboration agreements.

Following the symposium, Burnie Works will compile insights, refine proposed solutions with community feedback, and support providers to progress partnership opportunities and future funding bids.

Who Should Attend:
All federally and state-funded service providers in the Burnie region, along with organisations working in health, mental health, community development, youth services, economic development, education, recreation, First Nations services, ACCOs, and not-for-profit sectors.

This is a rare opportunity to come together, align our efforts, and build a united approach to improving outcomes for the Burnie community.
