Views my own. I have been a local for 26 years and am a proud Greens candidate for the seat of Dunstan in next state election. For the past 11 years I have served as a councillor for the City of Norwood, Payneham & St Peters. I ran for Council to advocate for our heritage, recreation facilities, precious open space, tree canopy and to help our volunteers. As a committee member of the Adelaide Park
Lands Association, and past president of Community Alliance SA, I have a keen appreciation of what the community cares about. Ensuring that we have open and transparent government is important to me and I want to see a community where all people are informed and engaged in community life. I completed a PhD in 2019 investigating why leaders of our community groups and associations are leaving their roles. I used this knowledge in my role as Chair of the South Australian Volunteering Strategy, which aims to improve the volunteering experience and increase participation. I acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the Traditional Owners of this country throughout Australia, and their connection to land and community. The views expressed on this page are my own, and not necessarily those of SA Greens or the Norwood, Payneham & St Peters Council. Authorised by Dr Christel L Mex, PO Box 685, Kensington Park, 5068.
