How do we nurture self to co-create healthy communities?


The 3 day Art of Participatory Community Building training (AoPCB) offers a bespoke framework underpinned by asset based community development (ABCD) and art of participatory leadership practices, patterns and processes in a participatory co-design framework. 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.
