| Communities
can achieve much for themselves, without having to wait for
Central Government led policies to filter down to them. They
can begin to promote and foster understanding, awareness and
tolerance at a local level - and begin to have a real impact
upon such issues right now! |
| |
| What you
will require however, is a committment from all sectors of the
community to the project you intend to undertake. |
|
| Where To Make A Start |
| |
| You are
going to need to secure support from across the community and
a good way to begin this process may well be to approach all
the local community and religious leaders. Don't worry at this
stage if you haven't made any concrete plans at this stage -
after all, inviting such people to become involved in the developmental
process is a great way to ensure your final project proposal
is going to appeal to the widest possible audience! |
| |
| Indeed,
attracting such support at this stage may open up all sorts
of opportunities later on - such as access to venues to host
your event and help in promoting the event itself to the local
communities. Also, if you intend to set up a local 'steering
group' to oversee the project you might wish to consider inviting
representatives from such groups onto the committee. |
