The Tamarack Institute in Canada has created a unique approach to reducing poverty in local communities. Their initiative in hundreds of cities has proven to be an effective method for engaging entire communities in poverty reduction.
Join Paul Born, Co-CEO of the Tamarack Institute, as he shares their approach to mobilizing communities to launch campaigns for large scale change. Active in nearly 400 communities in Canada and the US, the Tamarack Institute provides both a methodology for organizing and the supports that make the work of large-scale community change easier and more effective.
Paul will share with us a description of the methods Tamarack has used and the nature of the evaluations of their work. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about a new community approach to increasing wealth for low income people.
Paul will be interviewed by John McKnight, Co-founder of the Asset-Based Community Development Institute.
