Communities in Control Conference 2008

"The Community Challenge: Building political, environmental, social & economic pathways towards true social inclusion"

Jun 16, 2008 - Jun 17, 2008
Moonee Ponds, Melbourne, Victoria Australia
 

Highlights

* In the face of such enormous global challenges, and in the shadow of such formidable global powers, how do we begin to imagine the world we want to create? How do we take our vision to the global stage? Does it really matter to the world at large what we do in our own backyards?
* How do we harness the power of modern communications to bring the wisdom of global knowledge into play locally, and carry our stories to the world? How can we transfer our own experiences effectively without imposing or patronising?
* How do we overcome the pressures of the "I want, I want" society and move towards the development of altruistic, safe, just, borderless, inclusive communities? How do we move beyond tolerance to true diversity? Where do we start?
* What do we need to do now, today, to become the modern, dynamic, flexible organisations we need to be in order to respond to local and global pressures? How do we become greener, more creative, more responsive, more responsible, more outward-looking, more inclusive without compromising our core mission?
* How do we take full advantage of all that globalisation offers and insulate against all that globalisation threatens to take away?
