By 2050 we aim to ensure that the South West is an internationally recognised region of excellence for high quality agricultural products, tourism experiences and a centre of excellence for mining and advanced manufacturing technologies. We will protect our environment and quality of life, ensuring equitable living standards for all communities.

Our projects
Here in Collie, the State Government’s Collie Delivery Unit coordinates, oversees and promotes activities and initiatives that support the future prosperity of Collie.
Work is being conducted across multiple work streams and sectors to ensure workforce and industry issues are being managed and that Collie is attractive for investment and can deliver sustainable employment opportunities for the local community.
The South West Development Commission plays a key role in this work. Find out more about the Collie Delivery Unit on our website https://www.swdc.wa.gov.au/project/collie-futures/.
