Community development

Community development is important in the Territory given its unique geographic and demographic make-up.

The Department of the Chief Minister plays a key role in building a strong Territory community by:

• supporting regional development through strong leadership and coordination
• supporting and promoting improvements to the diverse Territory lifestyle
• continuing to promote the Northern Territory as an attractive place to live, work and raise a family
• building a safe, secure and resilient Northern Territory.

In the communities section you will find information on:

• security
• grants
• volunteers
• multicultural affairs
• youth
• seniors
• non-government organisations.

For more information on NGOs and secondment opportunities go to the Northern Territory Government website.
