FYI
Building from the Bottom Up! ?Smart Settlement? in Practice Conference
Registration Now Open!
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
On Thursday, January 27th, 2011, at the Ajax Community Centre, Ajax,
Ontario; the Council of Agencies Serving South Asians (CASSA), is hosting
a one-day conference called Building from the Bottom Up!: ?Smart
Settlement? in Practice.
Over the last three years, CASSA has connected and developed partnerships
with community agencies, leaders and members in small and medium size
municipalities in the province. Over this time period we have had many
successes, challenges and lessons learned. We have also been observing the
excellent work that our colleagues have been doing throughout the
province. Thus, this conference is an opportunity for us and others
pursuing community engagement for systems change to share experiences and
develop skills and capacities.
Similarly, in an environment of limited resources, the settlement sector
has moved towards more collaboration, partnership development and the
sharing of resources. This forum provides members of the sector a venue to
reflect on the political, social and economic environments, to network,
and to develop a vision for the future of the sector.
All are Welcome.
Please join us for this very important event!
