MacroMelbourne towards 2030 

MacroMelbourne is one of Melbourne Community Foundation’s major initiatives.   It is designed to ensure that Melbourne is, and continues to be, a liveable city for all its people as it faces the challenges of growth over the next 20 years.  

Despite an increasing public policy focus on addressing disadvantage and increasing social inclusion, research indicates there have been continuing and growing levels of poverty and inequality over the past decade.  

Understanding that disadvantage and inequality can divide communities, the Initiative aims to identify areas where philanthropic investment can contribute to creating a more equitable, sustainable and liveable Melbourne.  

Two key reports have been produced as part of the initiative:

  • The project report MacroMelbourne: A Liveable City for all its People? A focus on the urban growth areas of Melbourne outlines 14 community based projects which address the six key priority areas for funding identified through the research. Over 2010 MCF will be seeking partnerships with individual donors, philanthropic organisations and business to raise the funding and inkind support required to implement these projects and help build robust communities in the urban growth areas of Greater Melbourne.
