Both our Albury and Wodonga communities were recently asked to share their thoughts on the previous 2C1C Strategic Plan, including regional priorities and community aspirations for the reviewed Strategic Plan and future cross border collaboration.

This community input has informed the updated draft Strategic Plan, which replaces the previous plan that was developed in 2017.

What did the community tell us about Regional Priorities?
