Course content

This programme draws on the experience of people who are securing change in communities through collaborative methods and relationships. Those who do this from an institutional perspective usually recognise this as a leadership role, but in communities the language of leadership is often alien.

People making a real difference in communities may have a history of volunteering or have a more explicit role as a community champion. This course is aimed at people coming from both perspectives. It is aimed at leaders from both community and citizen leadership backgrounds, as well as professionals.

We expect this course to particularly appeal to people working in primary and community health settings. It addresses the emerging need for new knowledge and practice in effecting change in collaborative health and care systems.
