This workshop will develop your understanding of how to work in communities, bringing people together on a local basis to achieve a common goal.
Community organising is an incredibly powerful way of making sure that you can achieve change at a local level. It combines effective leadership with empowering and building lasting communities of change. Communities that are then self-led. To be an organiser, you have to learn to let go of and share your power.
Three things you will do in this workshop:
- Understand the principles of community organisation and how to apply them in practise
- Look at the tools others have used successfully to achieve change
- Hear about best practice and lessons from experienced community organisers
