Overall aim

In this session, we invite you to consider what works and why in developing communities. We'll reflect on experience from our Place communities through structured conversations with people from the communities we work alongside.

Description

Communities are facing on-going challenges to their resilience and sense of agency. The Covid-19 pandemic and cost-of-living crisis continue to provide a backdrop of uncertainty. Our approach is to work with communities in ways that attempt to bridge the gaps between policy and practice.

We’ll look at power, time and decision-making as aspects that can fundamentally support communities to move in a direction that supports their aspirations.
