Have your say

Locals are being invited to have their say on Brimbank council’s plans to develop a new Social Justice Framework for the municipality.

According to council, the framework will outline how council will lead and support equality and inclusion for all who live, work and visit Brimbank.

Council said the framework aligns with the inclusivity statement and the community vision in the ‘We Are Brimbank’ plan and will also help guide how it plans and delivers services, programs, advocacy and engagement to residents across Brimbank.

Brimbank mayor Thuy Dang encouraged locals to participate in the survey.

“We want everyone in Brimbank to have equal access to support and opportunities, no matter who they are or where they come from,” Cr Dang said.

“Inclusion is not just a policy — it’s how we work. Our updated Social Justice Framework will help us make fair decisions that benefit the whole community.

“We want to know what social justice means to you and how council can take meaningful action to improve equity and inclusion.”

Council said it will be able to deliver improved community outcomes for all by ensuring services and programs focus on equity and inclusion from the start.

The community consultation is open until Sunday 9 November.
