While community development needs will vary by situation and location, the core of the definition of community development adopted by CDS, IACD, and NACDEP states that CD happens “Through the organization, education, and empowerment of people within communities.” This workshop will be an exploration of the context and frameworks often used in community capacity building including ways of engaging residents in developing equitable and economically thriving communities.

This workshop is developed and presented by collaborators from across the US working with the Southern Rural Development Center. The workshop presenters invite participants to engage in exploring the nexus of collaborative community development concepts and practice.
