This ministry has two components: Brisbane East Timor Office and Communiquade
Edmund Rice.
Brisbane East Timor Office (BETO)
The Brisbane East Timor Office works with developing partnership arrangements between
different local districts in East Timor and civic organisations in Brisbane. Often
the focus of these partnerships is specific projects rebuilding housing, health and
education systems in local areas of East Timor.
Communiquade Edmund Rice (CER)
Members of the community were involved in education and other development projects in
Dili and Gleno, a district close to Dili. This involved primary and secondary
teaching as well as supporting health, agriculture, water and sanitation projects.
