COMMUNITY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Community economic development describes the way local communities are making decisions collectively. It is a process that develops economic sustainability at a local level.
By developing practical and realistic strategies to embrace opportunities and accept challenges, a community can stimulate economic activity which will create wealth and enhance the quality of life of its residents.
Community economic development is a process of individual and collective effort that builds on existing links and networks to create opportunities for better economic outcomes.
Drawing on its work in Corporate Governance, Co-operative Development and Ownership Strategies, we can assist communities to create a community-owned and operated resource that is creative, flexible and sustainable, and has the potential to bring about a better future.
