The Community Enterprise Initiative is a 12-month project of Nundah Community Enterprise Cooperative (NCEC) and Community Praxis Co-op supporting the ecology of social enterprises particularly with groups who may be marginalised or face systemic barriers to employment. We are working across the Moreton, Sunshine Coast and Toowoomba areas in partnership with existing social enterprises, neighbourhood centres and the Queensland Social Enterprise Council.
The project includes:
- developing stories/case studies of how community/neighbourhood centres are initiating or/and sustaining social or community enterprises
- facilitating 3 workshops across each of the regions for those citizens and stakeholders interested in community and social enterprise
- ongoing community of practice, resource development and linkages to existing mentoring and educational supports.
