ACTCOSS publishes a journal, Update, in which organisations and individuals may place paid advertising relevant to the community sector.
Update is available to over 650 subscribers through our Weekly Community Sector eNotices, plus we email the journal directly to over 200 community organisation members and associate members, and community sector officials in ACT Government directorates. We also post hard copies to politicians (ACT MLAs, Federal Ministers and Senators). Additionally, hard copy journals are distributed at ACTCOSS events and training. The electronic version is hosted on the ACTCOSS website.
Ads appear on the journal’s inside pages. They may be up to one page long, but must follow the size guidelines outlined below. You may provide your own design, or provide the content elements and we will arrange a basic layout.
