Abstract

In the Australian context, inter-organisational collaboration is complex because the Health and Welfare service delivery structure is fragmented and diffuse. Capacity building offers a way forward that values the diversity of organisations involved in the delivery of programs and services. The experience of attempting to build capacity in the inter-organisational field through the Rural Health Promotions Development Program, is examined with particular reference to issues of context, regulation, leadership, governance and sustainability.
