Event description
Landcare Build Skills - Communities of Practice
Tuesday 23rd April- 1.00pm-2.30pm online on Zoom
Join WALN for a collaborative event with Perth NRM/RegenWA as we take a deep dive into the framework around developing a successful and coordinated Community of Practice (COP).
Guest speakers will include Dr. Kristin Exeter, National Landcare Network’s Partnership Manager who will provide an overview of the guiding principles and ideas around a COP and why they can be so incredibly valuable in the community landcare and environmental space.
We will also have presentations from two WALN Member Groups who are already putting the COP theory into practice. Kate Tarrant from Lower Blackwood LCDC and Tam Connor from Mulloon Institute will share their knowledge around the design and development of their COP programs, key learnings, helpful hints and tips around building a beneficial COP.
We will discuss the upcoming Expression of Interest process for WALN Member Groups regarding support towards the research, design and development of a Community of Practice.
