I’m one of many fortunate people to have worked alongside Simon Crean, and to have benefitted from his counsel, kindness, and passion for regional Australia. Taken far too soon, an enormous loss. My heart breaks for his family. Rest in peace.
Vale Hon. Simon Crean
Among his many roles, he was a director of FRRR. His intellect, curiosity, passion and friendship will be sorely missed. We extend our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Some good tips for transitioning to living regionally for the e, tree, sea changers. It also goes both ways - rural communities are often grappling with how to welcome in and ‘make room’ for the opp’s & challenges of regional migration - thanks for sharing Jack

@jackheath did I just spot you in the #qanda audience? A question coming on role of philanthropy in disaster recovery & resilience, community cohesion?
Interesting question on whether connection can occur online and trust F2F - trust is surely the social contract and therefore online can only serve some purpose of connection but human condition is relational & that needs 3D connection @rosejost I reckon you know about this!
Very helpful thread here for funders to reflect on & improve practice. Thank you @VillanuevaEdgar for posing an important question & opening up a needed conversation
To makes grants to a community without advisement and engagement with that said community can be considered philanthropic malpractice. What other funder behaviors would you consider philanthropic malpractice? #decolonizingwealth
Red Earth Community Foundation can think in generations when everything else is 3-5 years! Great message from @GeorgieSomerset kicking off Cultivating our Future Forum in #Murgon #BurnettInland @FRRR_Oz @CFAustralia_ @DAFFgov #FutureDroughtFund
