June 2011 Forum: Lunchbox to Toolkit

If we believe it takes a village to raise a child, what does this mean for relationships and collaboration between learning hubs and local communities?

This powerful question was the gathering call for the “Lunchbox to Toolkit” forum held at the Onehunga Community Centre on 14 June 2011.  The purposes of the one-day forum were to:

  • build relationships between those working in the ‘familycentred, community-led development’ space
  • share ideas, experiences and practice
  • explore what else could be done to strengthen a familycentred, community-led approach in Tamaki Makaurau.
