Philanthropy Australia Networks
A network is a group of grantmakers and community investors (and in some cases grantseekers) who form a network because of a professional need or common interest or structure that is not program specific. The purpose of a network is to connect individuals in the group in order that experience and knowledge may be shared and the use of their expertise and available resources maximised.

Discussion Lists
Philanthropy Australia maintains several email discussion lists exclusively for members of networks. An email discussion list (listserv) is an Internet email tool which utilises a single email address to send a message to everyone subscribed to the listserv. It allows members with common interests to discuss pertinent matters. In this instance, there is a listserv for each network.
Subscription to the networks listservs is limited to members of the network in question, thus each subscription must be manually approved. If you are a member of one or more of the networks listed on this page and wish to subscribe, send a blank email to the email address listed for the network(s) you are involved in.
For information on how to use the listservs, see the
Listserv FAQ.
