Mapping your Community
Event description
Jeder Institute is excited to offer our Mapping your Community workshop. This workshop will focus on the six assets of ABCD. We will share asset mapping tools to identify, connect and activate their community assets to create opportunities.
“The appeal of ABCD lies in its premise that communities can drive the development process themselves by identifying and mobilizing existing, but often unrecognized assets, and thereby responding to and creating local economic opportunity.” Dan Duncan
This training is interactive and participatory, where you get to use the tools and resources which you are learning about. These tools and resources can be used directly with the communities who you work with.
Asset Mapping is an effective way to map the skills, talents, abilities, and passions of individuals, and to discover the strengths, networks, and resources of communities and organisations. This workshop will cover:
- The WHY, The HOW, The CONNECTION and The OUTCOMES of Asset Mapping
- Key Steps to Asset Mapping
- Tools share with others to identify, connect and activate your community assets
This training is endorsed by ABCD Asia Pacific
