Small Change Day and maybe a new Forum


This post sees us offer a brief intro to the one- day event held in Parson Cross, Sheffield, on 13 June 2012, hosted by us, Nabeel Hamdi and Multistory in association with the Centre for Development and Emergency Practice (CENDEP), Oxford Brookes University.

Information from this event including the report is available at: www.smallchangeforum.org

SUMMARY:
The forum event explored how small change community development practice could be
adapted and applied by local stakeholders in Sheffield.
The event brought together interested local residents, community artists, academics, local
councilors and officials, arts organisations and community located activists to discuss Small
Change, its ethos, partnerships and future actions. The event introduced the main ideas
and principles of Small Change practice to the group and explored ways of mobilising a
regional Small Change Forum Network in Sheffield.
Important to this process was identifying next steps to uncover existing resources, skills and
knowledge which could be used to bring about positive change in the community.
