In 2020, Australians Sharing a New Story and Sprout Community are going into a research phase, pending further development.
You can stay in touch with us and learn of new opportunities by signing up for news and alerts here. We'll let you know when there are opportunities to participate, and you'll also receive our electronic newsletter, Newsbriefs, once every two months.
Where needed, IofC Australia sometimes provides part-funding to enable participants to travel to events and undertake community projects
Life Matters
offers residential weekends, workshops and gatherings towards discerning life direction and purpose.
Creators of Peace
brings the concept of peace into our daily lives, to reflect on its role in creating the relationships that enable us to thrive. The program offers space for people from diverse backgrounds to meet in Peace Circles and other practice groups.
Australians Sharing a New Story
partners with local communities to share and appreciate our rich and varied histories, and articulate new stories for ourselves and our communities.
Initiatives
We believe that everyone has a part to play in building a just, peaceful and sustainable world, based on relationships of trust and integrity. The initiatives that we list here are current efforts or projects that our national team is supporting with partners who have approached us with a specific need. Some of this work is helping individuals to develop their own ‘initiatives of change.’
Contact us if you'd like to pitch us an idea for a joint initiative, or if you'd like some help developing your own. We're listening!
First Nations initiatives
are working for reconciliation between Aboriginal and other Australians.
Peace and Leadership Training
equips tertiary students in peacebuilding and culturally-intelligent leadership.
Regional trustbuilding exchanges
