Episode 22 - Scaling Connected Communities
How do we create a social infrastructure that enables us to bounce forward to a more equitable intentional, meaningful and community centred processes?
What does that sentence even mean?
It simply means that the expertise non-profits are looking for often lies within the communities that they exist to serve.
When a community comes together to design the space and services they need systemic issues like poverty, homeless and hunger can finally be solved.
Mind blowing right? Not really. And not really a new concept either, Anne Gloger has been doing this work for over twenty years.
Anne is the founding Director at East Scarborough Storefront and Principal at the Centre for Connected Communities. Since 2000, Anne has worked at the East Scarborough Storefront, pioneering collaborative solutions to complex issues in an inner suburban community in Scarborough, Ontario. Out of this work has emerged a new approach to community development, the Connected Community Approach (CCA).
CCA is a values/asset based community development framework that supports the use of creative processes to support grassroots groups, social service agencies, artists, architects, urban planners, environmentalists, academics, municipal actors and others to co-create initiatives that foster meaningful change in their communities.In her role as Principal, Anne provides leadership to a dynamic, diverse, and creative team of community development professionals.
Anne has won several awards for her pioneering work in Connected Communities, including the Jane Jacobs prize, the Courage to Lead Award, the William P Hubbard Award for Race Relations, Leading Women Building Communities, the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee medal, and Vital People and we are thrilled to welcome her into The Hub.
The bottom line? Anne is calling for a paradigm shift. Let’s stop taking care of vulnerable people and let’s start building connecting communities that help the people in those communities thrive.
Anne thank you so much for sharing your energy, your enthusiasm, and your work with us.
