Community Participation in Moura
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Fewer people in Moura participate in unpaid care and volunteer work compared to most similar areas. While some residents still contribute to the community, the number of people providing unpaid care is among the lowest for its level. This shift is seen clearly in the home, where unpaid childcare has dropped sharply over the last decade.
Participation
