How do we co-create sustainable change that is mutually beneficial?

How do we discover and build on strengths and assets of a community or project?

How do we get a range of diverse voices at the table?

This workshop is for anyone who lives in a community; that’s everyone! Participants will explore some complementary intersections between a range of strengths-based community development patterns, practices and processes based on 20 years of practical application across a range of countries. These approaches have been used effectively in community, business, government and non-government contexts worldwide to enable the inclusion and connection of diverse perspectives for deeper outcomes.
