Partnerships
Build with the community, not around it.
APA works with organisations that recognise the capability, experience and contribution of African professionals across Australia. Partnership should create clear value for both APA’s community and the organisation involved.
We are interested in relationships that support professional participation, learning, leadership, connection and access to meaningful opportunities.

What good partnership looks like
How we work with partners.
Partnership should create clear value for APA’s community and the organisation involved.
Mutual value
Create something useful for both APA’s community and the partner, with clear outcomes and responsibilities.
Clear roles
Agree who is responsible for delivery, communication, data, brand use and follow-up.
Community benefit
Partnership activity should create a clear benefit for APA members or the wider professional community.
Accountability
Claims, outcomes and use of APA’s name or community should be agreed and governed.
Get in touch
Start a partnership conversation.
Start with the purpose, the people involved and the value you want to create. APA can then determine whether there is a credible fit and what a responsible partnership would require.
