Cardinia Shire Council works closely with a number of partner organisations that represent councils on a regional, state or national level. These partnerships are essential in amplifying our message and highlighting the shared challenges that local governments are facing across the country.

Many of our projects are being advocated for and delivered with the support of our partners.


Our key partners include:


Greater South East Melbourne (GSEM)

GSEM includes the shires of Cardinia and Mornington Peninsula, and the cities of Casey, Frankston, Greater Dandenong, Kingston, Knox and Monash.

GSEM advocates for jobs, infrastructure, investment, liveability, sustainability and wellbeing for the southeast region.
