| Welcome to the Centre for What Works, the place where people can
learn from others, save time and money and help reduce duplication of effort.
The Centre has four key resources for community groups, government and
communities, taking the hard-won knowledge of one organisation and sharing
it with many. These "knowledge banks" allow you to extract the
lessons of others, or contribute your own - as the old adage goes, "None
of us is as smart as all of us".
- Lessons Bank - find out what projects others have worked on
- what worked, what didn't, and what could have been done differently
- before you start a similar project/program.
- Plans and Tools Bank - download useful plans or handy tools
(marketing plans, business plans, etc.) that will save you time and
money when putting in place a new project/program.
- Policy Bank - find a range of template policies and procedures
relevant to not-for-profit Boards and Committees and the organisations
they govern.
- Linkages Bank - this provides you with web links from around
Australia and the across the world to the best knowledge and resources
for community groups.
The Centre for What Works is a key resource of the Centre for Best Practice
in Grantmaking, helping grantmakers ensure their valuable resources go
further and that knowledge is distributed more widely and effectively.
