From SENTAS to SECTAS
There has been a groundswell of local energy, with enterprises and changemakers coming together to shape local plans and action.
Building on the work to-date of SENTAS, trailblazed by Paul Quilliam, we’ve decided to focus our next phase on growing local connection, leadership and collective action. We see this as vital to grow the social enterprise sector and impact in Tasmania. For this evolution, we asked and The van Dieman Project has agreed to provide local secretariat support; and we asked and Social Enterprise Australia has agreed to provide underpinning governance. Adam Mostogl is convening the group.Â
This comes with a name change from SENTAS to SECTAS – the Social Enterprise Collective of Tasmania. It also comes with the launch of membership. If you’re based in Tasmania, you can join now as a Social Enterprise Member or as an Associate Member.
We’re building SECTAS together, and your input will shape what comes next. We’ll soon call for steering group members from the member base – if you’re keen to guide this work, we’d love to hear from you.
And keep an eye out. We’ll be running events across Tasmania and launching a digital discussion platform soon to connect, share what’s happening, and spark new ideas.Â
