Hi-- Peggy and I have been noodling around on this question, and we both want to invite the the input of as wide a community as possible.
How are you funding your community work? The longer version of the question is, If you work for more healthy communities (however you might define those terms) does your great work support you financially? If so, how are you making that happen in today's world? * Think of John Engle's work in Haiti which seems to be supported by a foundation and probably a lot of work seeking grants. * Think of Chris Corrigan's work among first nations peoples, which seems to be largely supported by provincial governments and local tribes. * Think of Cheryl Honey's work of Community Weaving, which seems to be supported by certification training. * Think of others who seem to be supported by being employees of NGOs and governments. Perhaps these "seems to be supported" are wide of the truth. Perhaps you folks will share your learnings. How are you funding your community work today? Thanks! :- Doug. * * ========================================================== osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist
