Nimbin Inter-Agency

• Meeting on 31st May 2025

• For Nimbin community organisations

• From 9.30am – 12.30pm

• At Birth & Beyond - By Invitation

Nimbin has a myriad of community organisations that rely heavily on volunteer input. The Nimbin Chamber of Commerce is seeking interest from those organisations in forming an interagency. 

The initiative arose from the Sustainable Nimbin planning process and the idea is a group that meets twice a year to share what they are doing and to hear what other groups are doing. In the process, we might find things we can work on collaboratively or, avoid reinventing the wheel. 

The Chamber agreed to organise the first meeting to canvas interest with the hope that it becomes a regular opportunity to connect, share vision, and maybe collaborate.

Things we could be working on:

• Build community resilience through cooperation,

• Identifying funding opportunities and help with grant writing, 

• Ideas to run meetings efficiently, 

• Identifying community-based initiatives we can work on together.

Currently community information is shared through Nimbin Good Times, Nim FM, social media and word of mouth. While these are really useful avenues the most valuable way to exchange information amongst us all is often face-to-face. How the interagency works to optimise its benefits could be refined over time by those groups who participate.

If held twice yearly, the Nimbin Inter-Agency meeting would be in November 2025.
