EVENT INFORMATION
South Cariboo Community Planning Council and Interior Health are pleased to partner on this exciting opportunity focused on strengthening collaborative capacity to advance work on building healthier communities in the South Cariboo. Collaboration across agencies in the South Cariboo has long been facilitated through the work of the South Cariboo Community Planning Council and various organizations in the region. But conditions have changed over the years, and the context has become increasingly complex. This workshop will engage with questions about what it takes to do collaborative work at a community level today, given the changing landscape and context.
Join us to work with others in the community to consider how multiple organizations can develop the capacity to align their work for greater impact on the issues of concern to all, even when there are differing mandates, interests, resources and time constraints. For more information on how to register, please contact Debbra Williams.
