Think & Do Tank Foundation

Since 2013, Think+DO Tank Foundation (TDTF) has been working within local communities in low-income parts of South Western and Western Sydney, co-creating artistic projects and social enterprises in which creativity and collaboration are a driving force. At Think+DO Tank Foundation we start from a position of strength. We know our collaborators are among the lowest socio-economic and most marginalised people in Australia today. We know the severe COVID lockdowns in 2021 took their toll. We also know there is an enormous wealth of lived experience, professional and cultural knowledge, languages, faiths and cultures that enrich and inform every project we co-create. We create our programs together because they change lives for the better - and for the long term.
