The Thriving Queensland Kids Partnership Country Collaborative undertook the Social Network Analysis Project (SNAP) to better understand the collaborations that underpin grassroots and strategic systems change efforts contributing to child wellbeing and development in rural, regional and remote Queensland. The group identified that a disconnect is often experienced between metropolitan and country communities and that centralised urban decision-making processes are often applied broadly across more remote areas.

– how to complete a Social Network Analysis (SNA)
– how the SNA can be applied to strengthen our collective advocacy approaches
– how social networks operate in rural, regional and remote Queensland, drawing on findings from TQKP’s Social Network Analysis Project (SNAP)

TQKP gives our thanks to everyone who made this work possible, including our networks across Queensland who contributed a response to the survey. This toolkit is the product of a collective effort, with collaborators from First Person Consulting, University of the Sunshine Coast, yourtown and The Smith Family Capricorn, highlighting what can be achieved by working in partnership.
