Community development workers contribute to the development of communities through social change processes. The work may occur within and across social, environment, economic, arts and culture, and recreation sectors.
This work may take place in domestic and international contexts. For instance, Aboriginal project officers (development assistance) are engaged by a charitable organisation to provide services for Australian-based projects aimed at alleviating disadvantage among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders.
They may coordinate field-based projects, manage the budget, or participate in the design, development, and implementation or monitoring of community development plans.
Employment for this occupation rose slightly in the past five years and rose strongly in the long-term (ten years). Employment for Community Development to November 2020 is expected to grow moderately.
