Foundations of Community Organising Training

Foundations of Community Organising:

This 2 day institute will be held on Tuesday 6 and Wednesday 7 May from 9am-4pm.  It is necessary for all attendees to commit to attending both days. The training is based on the philosophy and practices developed by the Industrial Areas Foundation in over 65 years of successful organising experience. 

Topics at the 2 Day Foundations training include:

• Community Organising:  based on the history and tradition of our religious, union and community organisations
• Relational Organising:  individual relational meetings, listening assemblies, research, negotiation and action
• Strengthening our Organisations: building a culture that is relational, action oriented and reflective/learning
• Using Relational Power in the public sphere to take collaborative action on common issues

This Foundations training will be the first step in the formation of a local district of the Queensland Community Alliance in Ipswich.
