Annual Greater Western Sydney Sector Support & Advocacy Workshop 2026

Western Sydney Community Forum is once again holding its annual sector-wide workshop, in partnership with Sector Connect, NCOSS and the Centre for Western Sydney.

This year’s workshop will:

• Share the findings and analysis from last year’s workshop and track progress to date.
• Discuss the work of the Greater Western Sydney Sector Support, Development & Advocacy Leadership Group and Strategy.
• Hear from NCOSS on how workshop feedback will be used to support and advocate for the Western Sydney community sector.
• Contribute to the research being done by the University of NSW to demonstrate and measure the impact of Western Sydney’s community services sector
• Participate in roundtable discussions on regional priorities and sector support needs.

By coordinating our efforts, we can strengthen our regional voice and collective work in response to limited resources and ongoing inequities.
