As a follow on from the Fair Share Festival, Transition Newcastle will be offering five workshops for members of community groups. The workshops are funded through the Fair Share Festival grant we received from UnitingCare Ageing (Hunter, Central Coast, and New England). The workshops will focus on a range of practical tools or skills for working with communities.
Each workshop is 2:00 – 5:00 pm on Saturday afternoons and the cost is what you can afford (suggested minimum $10)
12 May – Hosting community conversations (including appreciative inquiry, world cafes and open space)
2 June – Sustaining community leadership
23 June – Responding to conflict (both within and outside your group)
21 July – Building on community strengths (asset based community development)
