The former Strategic Partnerships program has now been incorporated into the Community and industry Engagement (CIE) program.
Strategic partnerships were formal alliances between the Waste Authority and key stakeholders to enable consolidated engagement and/or the building of mutual long-term goals and commitments to waste avoidance and resource recovery. The Authority sought strategic partners that were well placed to assist with advancing the Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery Act 2007 (WARR Act) objects and the Authority’s strategic priorities.
This program has now closed and will be re-structured under the Community and industry Engagement Program.
Strategic partnerships advance the Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery Act 2007 (WARR Act) objects and the Authority’s strategic priorities.
