Victorian Collaborative Centre for Mental Health and Wellbeing Board update October 2022

Lived Experiences Advisory Panel 

A high priority is the development a lived experience framework that will outline how people with lived experience will work in partnership to achieve the Collaborative Centre’s priorities. At the same time, there are immediate projects that need to be progressed with the involvement of people with lived experience.  

The Board considered and approved the establishment of a Lived Experiences Advisory Panel. The Panel will provide strategic advice to the Board, Executive Director and Establishment Team on the Collaborative Centre’s priorities for the next 12 months.  A working group was formed to finalise the Panel’s Terms of Reference. There will be a call for Expressions of Interest in the coming weeks. 

Centre partners

The Board confirmed the two-stage process to select the Collaborative Centre's partners.

Co-Director recruitment

The Board agreed on a timeline for the recruitment of the Centre’s Co-Directors. Role descriptions will be developed this year in parallel with a market mapping process. The roles will be advertised, and recruitment will commence in early 2023.
