“Community development should strengthen people’s voices and allow them to take collective actions for their socio-economic, cultural, and environmental development and well-being.”    –Community Development Practice, Dr. Mahbub Hasan

“Our differences make us the complex and incredible societies that we are – at the Global Centre for Pluralism we believe strongly that harnessing this diversity for positive change is not only important in our societies, but it is necessary for us to secure real peace and prosperity – whether we are recovering from war, seeking to end violent conflict, or addressing the growing polarization in our societies. There is much to do – and all of us must take part!” 

–Meredith Preston McGhie, Secretary General for Global Centre for Pluralism

The activities in the next part of the book are designed to help build community connections and provide creative ways for people to talk together about community issues and solutions.
