Organisation: Auspire - Australia Day Council WA
Internship Period: Winter (June - July)
Location: Nedlands
Auspire is an independent, not for profit association and registered charity operating in the civics and citizenship space. We are part of the ‘national family’ of eight State and Territory Australia Day Councils.
Our role is to encourage people living in Western Australia to feel a sense of belonging and a desire to contribute to create stronger, more inclusive and resilient communities.
Our vision is for Australian to be recognised as a culturally and socially inclusive society where people feel a sense of belonging and desire to participate. One of the ways we do this is through our many awards programs including
the Australian of the Year Awards https://australianoftheyear.org.au/and the Community Citizen of the Year Awards https://www.citizenshipawards.com.au/nominate/.
We require the intern to work with the team to identify innovative marketing ideas to promote nominations to the Auspire awards programs.
Importantly, we will require the intern to identify/research potential nominees, curate information to support a nomination and submit this information into the online award nomination systems.
Auspire is an independent, not-for-profit organisation founded in 1977. We are part of the Australia Day Council National network and have a vision for socially and culturally inclusive Australia. We work with individuals, schools, Government and communities to promote, support and build capacity for the social and cultural inclusion and we recognise individuals and community progress through the delivery of our award programs.
