Community
Development and Local Government

Ivan & Mary Searston A number of commentators have predicted a resurgence of interest in the philosophy
and process of Community Development in the 1990s. The Queensland Local Government
Association's adoption, in 1995, of a policy statement that LGAQ 'supports the
major themes and functions of community development' is one instance that supports
that prediction.
The LGAQ has since expanded the statement out to a policy document, has co-sponsored
three annual community development conferences since then, and is now grappling
with translating intention into informed action.
