Learning and Training opportunities with Inspiring Communities
Our vision is for all communities in Aotearoa to flourish: Ka ora ai te hapori o Aotearoa. Our Vision, Mission and Whakapapa.
We connect, mentor and support individuals, organisations and communities. Meet our board, our team and our supporters.
Inspiring Communities weave connections and collaborations across sectors and communities.
We help make things easier for communities to work in locally-led ways – together. We believe that communities know best about what works for them and what they need to thrive.
We share local wisdom and practice-based evidence to inform public policy and systems change.
We focus our mahi around ako (learning), tautoko (supporting), tuhono (connecting) and whakaaweawe (influencing) to grow a rich kete of practices, tools and support for communities to flourish.
