Engagement
Effective and genuine engagement leads to better policy outcomes and improved service delivery, which is why we are committed to listening to and supporting the early childhood education and care (ECEC) sector and our broader communities. When we work together to develop positive connections, our communities thrive.
We welcome feedback from all stakeholders on projects and programs that affect the ECEC sector. Your feedback helps us better understand the views of the community, and work together towards a shared vision for the future of children across NSW.
You can find information about recently closed engagements here.
Current engagements
Any current opportunities to get involved in engagements and consultations will be published here.
