The Centre for What Works is is Australia's learning exchange, where you 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".

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Policy Bank: Find a range of template policies and procedures relevant to community organisations.
4. Linkages Bank: Web links to Our Community information pages and other community resources from around Australia and the across the world, bringing together the best knowledge and resources for community groups.

The Centre for What Works is a key resource of the Australian Institute for Grants Management, a division of Our Community, helping grantmakers ensure their valuable resources go further and that knowledge is distributed more widely and effectively.
