Community Engagement and Empowerment
There is an increasing awareness on the part of public bodies and organisations of the need to directly involve communities in the creation of local services and strategies. Consequently this training session would be of interest to all those seeking to develop partnerships and working relationships with community groups and residents.
The session can take the form of a full days training or half day workshop and will explore the following areas of interest.
- Benefits of involving communities.
- Effective methods of engagement.
- Approaches that encourage inclusion.
- Developing community expertise.
- Creating empowered communities.
- Community empowerment and effective partnerships.
The learning will be interactive with many opportunities for discussion. If you have a suitable venue and a minimum of 6 interested participants then the session can come to you either as a half or full day event.
