The multiplier effect describes how an initial increase in economic activity generates further increases throughout the economy greater than the initial change. The multiplier can improve local communities by supporting local employment, enterprise, and building social capital. Community capacity building through knowledge, skills, and leadership can promote job creation and address social issues. However, community capacity building is not a quick fix and requires sustained local development over time.

Supporting Community Action (Burkett) - FCDL Workshop
The document discusses lessons from community development in Australia. It notes the history and context of community development practice in Australia, which differs from other places due to factors like vast distances and urban/rural differences. It introduces the concept of an "ecology of organizing" involving social service organizations, community organizations, and people's organizations all playing different but interconnected roles. An example of addressing financial exclusion illustrates this. Key lessons highlighted include people's organizations being strongest when building from existing relationships and identifying community strengths and assets from the start. While important, people's organizations also need connections to larger organizations and systems to create real change and pathways out of disadvantage.

Social capital & Lifelong Learning
This document discusses the concept of social capital and its importance for lifelong learning and society. It defines social capital as the relationships and social networks between individuals and communities that involve shared norms, values, trust, and reciprocity. These social connections provide both direct benefits like access to information and resources, as well as indirect benefits to health, confidence, and civic participation. The document emphasizes that social capital is an interactive and collective asset that relies on mutually beneficial relationships to strengthen communities and enable positive social change over time.

1 Introduction to Social Entrepreneurship
The document discusses the emerging field of social entrepreneurship. It notes that while still in its infancy, social entrepreneurship has become very influential at foundations, universities, and charitable institutions. Social entrepreneurs can operate through both non-profits and for-profits, and they work across sectors by forming hybrid models and alliances. Success for social entrepreneurs is defined by their impact and service to their social mission, rather than profits.

Building government community partnerships
The document discusses building partnerships between government and communities. It outlines different types of community engagement like citizen participation and empowerment. It provides examples of how governments can support communities through initiatives like matching funds for neighborhood projects. The document advocates for governments to move away from top-down approaches and focus on empowering communities to determine their own priorities. It also discusses challenges facing communities and the potential for partnerships to help address issues like social isolation.
Re imagining the museum
The document discusses the importance of community resilience and sustainability. It argues that communities need to meet basic needs, build local resources, and have principles of equity, inclusion, security, and adaptability. Communities possess assets like people, culture, systems, and social connections. An asset-based approach focuses on community strengths rather than deficiencies. Ordinary people and places matter most in defining community character. Promoting happiness, well-being, and mental health through community engagement and cultural heritage can provide social value beyond financial costs. Co-production rebuilds the local economy through households, neighborhoods, and civil society.
Social Progress & the Economics of Happiness (Dallas-area, TX)
The document discusses the economics of happiness and various metrics that have been used to measure well-being and social progress, such as gross domestic happiness. It notes that while these metrics are an improvement over solely using GDP, happiness is too simplistic and does not address underlying issues like inequality. The document advocates focusing instead on non-financial well-being indicators and accounting for environmental and social costs. It argues that corporate social responsibility has increased in importance but is often not substantiated, and the consulting firm Responsible Return aims to create tools to properly assess corporate impact and hold companies accountable.

Institutional Partnership Proposal
This proposal discusses building relationships between anchor institutions like colleges, hospitals, and cultural organizations and urban communities to promote economic development. It suggests forming a committee of stakeholders to define objectives like hiring local residents and purchasing locally. The proposal argues that anchor institutions have a vested interest in the economic health of their surrounding neighborhoods and that collaborating can help revitalize areas through job creation, local business support, and improving living conditions while avoiding displacement of existing residents. By increasing coordination between anchors, government and community leaders, incentives and programs can be established to stimulate urban renewal in a fiscally responsible way.

unleashing-municipal-enterprise
Unleashing Municipal Enterprise discusses empowering local governments in the UK to stimulate economic growth through "Municipal Enterprise". It argues that overly centralized control has stifled local initiative and innovation. Municipal Enterprise involves local governments undertaking commercial ventures, often in partnership with private sector, to address local economic and community challenges. By taking risks and sharing in rewards, Municipal Enterprise could help boost local job creation and address issues like developing digital infrastructure, in a way that generates profits to repay initial investments. The paper explores how a more balanced approach adapting this concept could help address current economic issues in the UK in the digital era.

There is no standard definition of community economic development (CED). From theoretical and practical perspectives, CED has been commonly described as a quintessentially local project, one in which communities reconstruct dysfunctional markets as a way of reconstituting social relations and building political strength. As social policy, CED emphasizes local participation in the design and implementation of affordable housing, job creation, and financing programs. Regardless of its characterizations, the modern CED movement is making strides to revitalize both urban and rural communities. Significantly, community lawyers and others specializing in CED have worked in partnership with community organizers and other advocates. The Civil Rights era, from the 1950s to the 1970s, is another important juncture in the CED movement. Community organizations and community development corporations act as financial intermediaries, providing technical assistance to local entrepreneurs and developing shopping centers, supermarkets, and other real estate projects. The history of CED is the history of social movements.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT IN THE NIGER DELTA
ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the nexus between corporate social responsibility and community
development in Niger Delta, using the case of the Nigerian Agip Oil Company and community development in
selected host communities in Bayelsa State. The paper revealed that, the oil companies score conspicuously low
in the discharge of Corporate Social Responsibility activities in tandem with the huge profit they make from the
area. This is because the living standard of the local people is still low and in pitiable conditions. Again,
whereas, there are memoranda of understanding signed between the oil companies and the host communities,
the oil companies more often than not fail to implement such agreement which negate the promotion of
community development. More so, MOU’s programmes do not reflect the priority needs of the people, which
make such projects subject to abuse and misuse. The paper therefore recommends that the laws governing the
Nigerian oil industry must be reviewed to compel oil companies to carry out social responsibility activities.
Moreso, the MOU’s must be respected, implemented and fully driven by the spirit of popular participation to
give the oil bearing communities a sense of belonging, if that is done, it will help to close the curtain of strained
relationship between oil companies and their host communities.
KEYWORDS: Oil, Development, Corporate Social Responsibility, Multinational Corporations.

Final ppt report in social innovation
Social innovation addresses societal challenges through new solutions, relationships, and ways of thinking. It occurs at micro, meso, and macro levels to meet social needs in a more effective, efficient, and fair way than existing solutions. Social innovation is driven by new actors like social entrepreneurs and requires its own support systems given market failures around public goods. Companies can benefit from social innovation by learning, boosting reputation, and connecting to future markets while also achieving social impacts beyond what governments and non-profits can.

Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

- 1. HTOD 212 (COMMUNITY BASED TOURISM) TEBOGO VINCENT METSWAMERE 23739134 The multiplier effect describes how an increase in some economic activity starts a chain reaction that generates more activity than the original increase. The multiplier can improve the community based on local economy in a sense that it increases knowledge, skills and leadership held in a community, supporting local employment and enterprise it can also build social capital-network volunteering, community activities, culture and again capacity building can not only promote job creation and employment opportunities, but also address wider social issues, whilst simultaneously recognising that community needs must be addressed for communities to be strong and resilient. However, community capacity building is not a ‘quick-fix’ to the problems of local communities. Rather, it is an essential part of a sustained approach to local development.
