6 Steps of Community Engagement
I came across this video on the Transition Culture blog. The narrator and creator of the “6 Steps of Community Engagement” is James Samuel, a founder of Transition in New Zealand, and publisher of the blog Yesterday’s Future. If you have seen ‘In Transition’, James is the guy discussing Oooby with the outrageous shirt. He was recently asked to give a talk to a local CSA project, giving them some ideas for how to manage their project. He developed a 6 stage process which looks like a good way of looking at creating successful projects. You can see his presentation below, and read a transcript of it here on the Transition Culture site. If would be great to get everyone’s comments (both from Transition Bedford and from other Transition groups) on these ideas, as I’m sure all your insights will help us.
