The Prime Minister’s Community Business Partnership (the Partnership) is a group of prominent business and community leaders appointed by the Prime Minister to advise the government on issues concerning community business collaboration, philanthropy and corporate social responsibility.

The Partnership operates on the premise that communities are stronger and more cohesive when individuals, not-for-profit organisations, government and business all work together; each offering its own set of unique skills.

The Partnership is supported by a secretariat located within the Australian Government Department of Family and Community Services (FaCS).
