2027 Governance for Social Impact Training

The Tasmanian Community Fund (TCF) is inviting applications from current board directors and executives of Tasmanian-based not-for-profit and charitable organisations to participate in the Governance for Social Impact executive education program, to be held in Hobart on 17–18 March 2027.

Applications close Wednesday, 3 February 2027.

TCF recognises the importance of strong governance in helping community organisations achieve their purpose, strengthen their impact and create lasting benefits for the communities they serve.

Through a partnership with the Centre for Social Impact at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), TCF is offering fully funded places in the Governance for Social Impact program.

The program is designed to strengthen participants' understanding of governance for social impact, with a focus on placing organisational purpose, mission and the people and communities being served at the centre of decision-making. It provides an opportunity to explore the complexities of governing social purpose organisations, challenge existing thinking and learn alongside leaders from across Tasmania's community sector.

The program combines pre-reading, two consecutive days of face-to-face training and a short written assessment following the training. Sessions are interactive and participatory, drawing on experienced facilitators, practical examples and discussion with fellow participants.
