what is a community independent?
Answer
Community Independents genuinely represent their community, reflect the values and views of their electorates, have a ‘compact’ with their community that guides their actions, empower their communities through collaborating and partnering with them, have processes for their communities to actively participate in politics, and are co-creating with their communities real political change in Australia (source: Community Independents project). They are not party members, single issue politicians or self appointed.
