Invest where it counts most- in yourself, and in your community
Community Capacity Creators is an immersive 7-session community leadership program that will run from July to November this year. We will dive deep into leadership theories and practical exercises, including talks from guest speakers who have the “know” and the “how” when it comes to climate-change, and the wider-ranging implications for our communities. We will also take an overnight regional study tour to Holbrook and Wagga Wagga, where we’ll explore examples of effective and adaptive ways of building social capacity and uncover the latest in on-farm innovation.
The program is hosted by Alpine Valleys Community Leadership.
