Community

ENTERING, BUILDING AND EXITING COMMUNITY (Jawole Willa Jo Zollar and the Company)

Entering community is a process of becoming aware of the values, leadership and history of a community; building or engaging community is putting those values into action, often questioning or even challenging existing values; exiting community is ensuring that all who participate feel recognized and can identify what they learned from the experience.

The workshop is based on experiential learning. We embody effective leadership practices that strengthen and develop our understanding of community engagement.  Participants gain tools and methodologies for entering, building and exiting community, including navigating a variety of assumptions regarding community-based practices.  This workshop is not a presentational how-to guide about community relations.  It is a dialogic mapping of experience using tools that may include theater games, writing and movement exercise.

It covers the following concepts:

• * Embodied learning through physical and movement concepts
  * Dialogic learning
  * Challenging assumptions
  * Asset mapping
  * Leadership transparency
  * Celebrating the intrinsic human impulse to create

Facilitators: 2-3
Room setup:  circular chair formation
Technical requirements::  A large flip chart, markers, large-size Post-It paper, iPod hook-up and DVD player
Workshop length: 4 hours (may be condensed)

* Participants must commit and be available for the entire workshop session.*
