A couple of weeks ago I was fortunate enough to be invited to an event organised by Forever Manchester. The event was an introduction to Asset Based Community Development, a method of working with communities that originated in the US and found a launch-pad in Seattle under the charismatic leadership of Jim Diers.
After the workshop I was able to interview Cormac Russell, Managing Director of Nurture Development, who has also now launched the ABCD Institute Europe, about the approach that underpins this way of working.
