ABCD has been widely adopted as an effective strategy for helping to create strong and inclusive communities. ABCD is a strengths-based approach to working with communities, emphasises community leadership and helps build relationships.

Drawing on the experience of the facilitator and participants, you will leave with practical tools, skills and ideas on how to:

• Focus on assets rather than deficiencies
• Identify and mobilise community assets
• Identify natural leaders
• Discover skills of individuals
• Build effective partnerships
