The Keep Australia Beautiful NSW Graffiti Action Day 2010 is a day for the community of NSW to focus their attention on graffiti vandalism.  Graffiti Action Day, partnered with the Department of Justice and Attorney General NSW, is an opportunity for all members of the community to band together on this issue which costs the NSW economy many hundreds of millions of dollars per year.



Goals:
The primary objectives of this initiative are:

•   To engage the community in the removal of graffiti at a local level
•   To raise awareness of good graffiti removal methods
•   To support non-government and community run facilities in 
     repairing damage caused by graffiti
 
Key graffiti vandalism sites will be identified by Keep Australia Beautiful NSW and local councils and volunteers, businesses, individuals, community groups, schools and just about anyone who would like to volunteer their time will be asigned to a site closest to them.  All sites will have a site coordinator who will brief volunteers on the specific site activites and risks/hazards.  The appropriate personal protection equipment and refreshments will be available at each site.
