Securing a bigger social legacy for Greater Western Sydney
Humanising Infrastructure is a discussion paper that sets out the case for a whole-of-government approach to social procurement.
Developed by the Western Sydney Leadership Dialogue in partnership with RPS, the report is supported by leaders and key stakeholders in Greater Western Sydney (GWS) and calls for a deliberate and coordinated effort to secure and optimise a lasting social legacy for the region.
Within this central framework, there is also an enormous opportunity, with the right policy settings, to unlock the value-generating potential of the social enterprise sector across NSW, and especially in GWS, where pockets of profound disadvantage and concerning rates of disengagement, drastically exposed during the pandemic lockdown of 2021, need to be addressed.
