COMMUNITY ACTIVATION
At Akaperte Consulting, we believe in the power of community to bring about meaningful change. Our platform supports community groups to operate a collective impact model. Collective impact models are based on the principle of bringing together multiple organisations and individuals to work towards a common goal, with a shared vision and strategy.
​
Indigenous cultures have always placed great emphasis on the importance of community and collective action. In many Indigenous communities, decision-making is often made through consensus, with individuals working together towards a common goal. This approach is in line with the principles of collective impact models, which aim to bring together a diverse range of organisations and individuals to work towards a shared goal.
​
At Akaperte Consulting, we provide training and workshops to support community groups to operate a collective impact model. Our workshops are designed to educate and empower participants on the principles of collective impact, and how they can be applied in their own communities. Our workshops also explore the intersections between Indigenous culture and collective impact models, highlighting the ways in which these approaches can complement each other.
​
In addition to our workshops, we also offer coaching and support to community groups looking to implement a collective impact model. Our team has extensive experience in community engagement and research, and we use this expertise to help groups navigate the complexities of collective impact and achieve their goals.
