Civic Academy 1: What is Community Wealth Building

Join us for the first of two online Civic Academies on Community Wealth Building in Logan! 

In this first session, we'll introduce this series and our approach to civic education, before hearing from Community Wealth Building Expert, Patrick Fensham. 

This event will develop the technical knowledge of community wealth building as a solution to address insecure work at a city level. We will explore what it is and what has worked in other places. There will be time to explore why we're running a Community Wealth Building campaign and to ask questions about the concept.

In our second academy on 2 August, we'll get more specific about what's already happening in Logan and the opportunities that exist locally. You can register for the second academy here. 

You can read our two-pager on community wealth building here. If you’re really keen to get across the detail, you can read more from CLES or watch a video from the Democracy Collaborative or CLES.
