New Research for Local Trust: ‘Spheres of Community Leadership’ report launched

We are delighted to share the publication of three reports for Local Trust, examining the long term impact of their Community Leadership Academy. Richard Usher, our Learning and Evaluation Director, explains the role of Just Ideas in this project:

“This piece of work is the result of a long standing Learning and Evaluation role Just Ideas had alongside IVAR,  helping to bring together the learning and see the difference the (Local Trust) Community Leadership Academy was making. “

Entitled “Spheres of Community Influence” the three reports include ‘Living, Leading, Learning’ .

“Living, Leading, Learning” brings together learning from three roundtables facilitated by Just Ideas and IVAR, attended by stakeholders involved in Community Leadership in a range of different ways, from the grass roots through to those funding through to organisations supporting community leadership.”

New Report for Local Trust: ‘Building Community Leadership’

We’re delighted to share the publication of ‘Building Community Leadership’ the culmination of work with IVAR as evaluation and learning partners to Local Trust’s Community Leadership Academy (CLA).

Learning from the experience of participants and delivery partners over the last three years, the report sheds light on how the CLA supported individuals in communities to take action during the difficult years of Covid-19, and what will be needed in future to take forward this learning and sustain community leadership.
