The NSW Veterans Strategy 2021-2024 and Strategy Action Plan 2021-2022

NSW's first Veterans Strategy and Action Plan was developed through consultation with over 2,000 veterans, their families and stakeholders through a survey, and 16 focus groups attended by more than 140 veterans and family members in 2020. Developing the Strategy and Action Plan also involved an extensive review of evidence-based research, and careful translation of this research into practical actions. The documents were released on 13 April 2021 and are avaiable for download:

Heritage

Before considering any work of repair, maintenance, renovation, alteration or enhancement affecting war memorials, consider what strategies are appropriate to ensure long-term conservation using the Caring for our war memorials guide.

Commemoration

From 2014 to 2018 Australia paid tribute to the Centenary of Anzac. Throughout the period of commemoration state and local government agencies and community groups uploaded information on their commemorative activities onto the NSW Centenary of Anzac website. The website has been archived as a permanent record of how NSW marked this important time in history.
