Can Yasmut

My name is Can Yasmut.* I have extensive community development and project management experience in the community sector in NSW. Previous to being appointed as the Senior Project Officer for LCSA I have worked for the Upper Mountains Youth Services, the St. George Migrant Resource Centre, the Blackheath Area Neighbourhood Centre, the Mountains Community Resource Network and most recently for ANTaR NSW (Australians for Native Title and Reconciliation).

I have a passion for challenging equity and social justice issues affecting our community. I am committed to promoting the importance and value of small, community based not-for-profit organisations in NSW. To this role I bring knowledge and experience in community management and governance, and an ability to facilitate cross-cultural understanding and community engagement. I am looking forward to meeting and working with you throughout the duration of the Transition Resource Project.

My e-mail address is can@lcsa.org.au
