Moonee Valley Advocacy Project

We have developed an advocacy campaign (pdf, 358KB) involving a series of vitally important projects designed to benefit all people living in Moonee Valley and in the north west region of Melbourne.

We are seeking support for these projects from a range of stakeholders including state and federal government departments. Our aim is to make Moonee Valley and the north west region of Melbourne sustainable and well planned with a variety of services and opportunities to meet the needs of the community today and into the future.
