Interested in providing training-workshops or capacity-building courses?

Lindsay Upton from Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS)

Building capacity is at the heart of community development and community empowerment. When communities are well organised, inclusive, influential and cohesive they create a positive environment for people to enjoy a good quality of life.

As part of MECOSS' work to increase the capacity of individuals and groups working at a community level in Manukau East, we are keen to open up channels for them to access development opportunities.

If you're interested in providing training-workshops or capacity-building courses to enrich voluntary or not-for-profit community groups and social enterprise organisations, or you'd like to suggest a course you'd like to see MECOSS consider running, please email lindsay.upton@mecoss.org.nz

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
