Community Development: The Art of Facilitation and Workshop Design

WYP1609H
Summary

At the core of every community developer is a commitment to transformational teaching which unleashes within people the competencies to change their local community. Individual and group learning is possible when community members are treated with respect, feel safe to explore new ideas, and can readily apply new learning to their present context. Based on both the theory and practice of adult learning and the biblical principle of discipleship, participants will develop their personal capacity to facilitate both trainings, meetings, and design workshops to move the community a step closer to peace and well being.
