Charities and not-for-profits are being invited to join an online community of practice as part of new project to provide tailored cyber support for the sector.

The Hon. Dr Andrew Leigh MP, Assistant Minister for Productivity, Competition and Treasury today announced the Charity Resilience and Productivity Project at the ACNC’s Governing for Good Forum in Melbourne.

The ACNC's major update to its Commissioner’s Interpretation Statement on housing aims to provide charities and their professional advisers with greater clarity on a range of contemporary housing models, funding approaches and charity law principles.

While in-person tickets for our annual Governing for Good Forum on 14 August 2026 have reached capacity, you can still be part of the event.

There will be four new members joining the ACNC Advisory Board next month, as the term of four current members finishes.

The ACNC is pleased to announce that charity data collected by the ACNC is now available to approved researchers through the ABS’s Business Longitudinal Analysis Data Environment (BLADE).

The ACNC has announced the 2026-27 Regulatory Focus to support charities to strengthen their governing documents and better understand how to manage relationships with partners. 

As the new financial year begins, the ACNC is encouraging charities to review their governing document to make sure it still reflects their purpose and activities.

Bookings are now open for our annual Governing for Good Forum, to be held on Friday 14 August, in-person in Melbourne and online.

The ACNC is encouraging charities to regularly review their safeguarding policies and procedures to protect people from harm.
