Newman Futures was launched to spark collaboration and drive long-term change. The project outlined a comprehensive strategy to address the system change required across four pathways; Culture and Country, Liveability and Wellbeing, Education and Training, and Economy and Work.
Over its first five years, Newman Futures has proved what’s possible when cultures, community, industry, and government work side by side. Together, we’ve delivered 26 locally led initiatives and 11 pilot programs that have strengthened health, education, employment and liveability across Newman.
From supporting local businesses and planning for East Newman, to mapping out education pathways for the future of work, discover the strategies and goals behind each pathway to building a diverse economy that is inclusive to all.
At the 2025 Newman Futures Co-Creation Workshop and in subsequent engagements, stakeholders were provided the opportunity to provide input into future engagement and decision-making structures for the project.
The Newman Futures Project Partnership Group is to provide input into Newman Futures project’s strategic direction and priorities and endorsement as required.
The East Newman Steering Committee is tasked with overseeing the implementation of the East Newman Revitalisation Project and ensuring community priorities are met.
