Sunday hs smiles article and ed
Port Phillip Council in Melbourne has spent ratepayer funds to conduct a study counting the number of smiles observed in different streets, with the goal of improving community connections. Some residents criticize this as a waste of money and an insult. The council defends the study, but one resident calls it "total nonsense spending" and expresses anger about rising rates bills. A newspaper editorial argues the smile counting demonstrates contempt for ratepayers and that councils should focus on essential services rather than "silly grins."

The delegation visited the evicted Dale Farm Travellers site one year after the eviction to assess conditions. They found around 20-30 caravans still living in poor conditions on the road entrance, with lack of services and health/sanitation concerns. Residents expressed worries about another winter in such conditions. Their health needs were not being fully met since eviction and midwife/health visitor services were suspended or reluctant to visit the site. The Environment Agency also tested the evicted site for asbestos and other pollutants, indicating a risk to public health from the excavation works.Role of third sector in employment services, j rees
This document summarizes a research project exploring the role of the third sector in employment services in the UK. It finds that contracting out employment services has evolved over three waves of policy development since the 2000s. While third sector involvement was intended to be significant under the new Work Programme model launched in 2011, some issues have been raised about a potential "squeeze" of the third sector due to pricing pressures. The proposed research aims to understand the experiences of third sector providers under the Work Programme, whether their approach differs from other providers, and stakeholders' views on the value of third sector involvement in employment services. Qualitative research methods like interviews and case studies of employment service providers are outlined.

This document discusses rural social enterprises and community organizing. It defines rural social enterprise as a social enterprise located in or primarily benefiting rural areas. It presents the Plunkett approach to community organizing, which involves inspiring communities that cooperation can help solve problems, developing social enterprises as a team activity, and helping communities learn from each other. The goal is to increase the number of rural social enterprises that are open and trading by making the process quicker, simpler and easier.Community organising in England - what are we talking about?

Community organising in England - what are we talking about? (Lydia Rye, Nott...Third Sector Research Centre
Community organizing has a long history dating back to faith, education, and labor organizing in the 1930s led by Saul Alinsky. In the UK, community organizing grew through organizations like Citizens Organising Foundation and Citizens UK. Community organizing builds relational power between groups and individuals to enact change for the common good, using either broad-based or micro organizing. Examples show that community organizing in Nottingham has achieved policy changes like installing CCTV in cabs, increasing police monitoring of stop and search, and securing living wages from several councils and employers. While community organizing is growing in popularity in the UK, challenges include securing sustainable funding and staffing as well as developing organizing skills. Future opportunities include greater impact, leadership development, and institutionalRural Community Organising in England (James Derounian)
This document discusses rural community organizing in England. It notes that faith-based organizations have historically supported community organizing efforts in several English cities. It also finds that about 13% of community organizing groups in England focus on or include rural areas in their activities and membership. The document analyzes findings from interviews with over 20 stakeholders involved in or supporting community organizing and community development. It discusses links between urban and rural community organizing efforts and ways the two fields of community organizing and community development can learn from and reinforce one another, especially in pursuing community-led action.

Experiential learning through seeing, doing, and peer-to-peer learning are key ways that people learn in community groups. However, there are challenges to community learning, including an emphasis on individualized and vocational learning over collective learning. Additionally, the ability to effectively share knowledge between peers, a lack of learning opportunities, and complexity in political systems can hamper community learning. Personal challenges also exist in transitioning from learning to taking action outside of state agendas.
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.

This document summarizes two research projects on refugee integration and social networks. The first project analyzed data on 5,600 refugees in the UK from 2005-2008 to understand their integration priorities and social networks. The second project examined links between social networks, ethnicity, and poverty through interviews in Birmingham, Liverpool, and Cumbria. Key findings included the importance of family, friends, and community groups for support. Recommendations focused on improving language access, developing diverse networks, and addressing barriers like discrimination.Decoupling the state and the third sector, rob macmillan
1. The document discusses the Big Society policy in the UK and its implications for the relationship between the third sector and the state.
2. It analyzes the Big Society using theories of spontaneous order from Friedrich Hayek, suggesting that the third sector could be seen as a spontaneous order that is now decoupling from the state.
3. This decoupling or "great unsettlement" of the relationship signals a recasting of how the sector and state interact, with the state taking a less dominant role and the sector gaining more independence.

The document discusses the evolution of approaches to public governance from public administration to new public management and now to new public governance (NPG). It outlines some key challenges of delivering public services under NPG including adopting a public service-dominant logic focused on service systems and co-production rather than products, inter-organizational relationships, and policy dominance. The document also discusses implications of NPG for innovation, including focusing on user needs and experience, collaborative innovation, and understanding innovation as socially constructed within social systems.Processes of innovation in public services se spin-outs, fergus lyon ian vi...

This document summarizes research exploring isomorphic pressures that have driven convergence in the approach and delivery of employment services, specifically within the UK Work Programme. The research found evidence of institutional isomorphism across organizations in this policy field. Coercive pressures from the financial model and prime contractor management practices led to standardized, generic models of service delivery. Mimetic pressures also contributed to imitation and standardization as organizations responded to uncertainty and risk. While there was some resistance from mission-driven organizations, on the whole the research indicates convergence and isomorphism within this organizational field as defined by the structure of the Work Programme model.Managing the Knowledge Exchange Process, Razia Shariff & Naomi Landau, IKT 2013
Managing the Knowledge Exchange Process, Razia Shariff & Naomi Landau, IKT 2013Third Sector Research Centre
The document discusses knowledge exchange and its impact through three case studies conducted by the Third Sector Research Centre (TSRC). TSRC conducts research on voluntary, community, and social enterprise sectors. It aims to maximize research impact through a two-way knowledge exchange process involving stakeholders. The document presents a knowledge exchange impact matrix showing different levels of stakeholder involvement and dissemination strategies. It also identifies variables to consider like existing networks, policy appetite, and tailoring approaches to research type. Reflections note understanding research goals, researchers' engagement tendencies, and the current context are important for effective knowledge exchange. Relational activities and co-production throughout the research process are key to generating impact.A compartive understanding of the commercialisation of the third sector, simo...

This document summarizes research on the commercialization of the nonprofit sector in England/Wales and the United States. The research finds that:
1) Commercial revenue partially replaces donations as a source of revenue for nonprofits in both countries.
2) Commercial and donation revenue are interdependent, with an increase in one associated with a decrease in the other.
3) Commercial revenue crowds out donations, though this effect was only measured in the US. The degree of crowd-out varies between fields.The third sector in unsettled times, rob macmillan and rebecca taylor, sra se...

This document summarizes findings from a qualitative longitudinal study of third sector organizations in the UK. It discusses two case studies of villages, "Sycamore" and "Larch", to illustrate changes in grassroots community groups. In Sycamore, an affluent village, community groups have faced conflicts over issues but have continued with support from residents. In Larch, a formerly mining village, community groups have struggled after the end of regeneration funding, showing how historical layers of investment influence present communities. The study examines continuity and change for organizations in uncertain political and economic times.More Related Content
