Innovation at Civil Society Academy
We champion and advocate for a just and equal world, and spend all our time harnessing the superpower abilities of social pioneers, innovators and civil society leaders to fast track radical system transformation. Being a fast growing social start-up ourselves initiated by Welthungerhilfe in 2014, we know the transformative power of ideas and what it takes to bring them to life. Over the years we have also developed a strong reputation for strengthening and deepening local participative social innovation processes and championing the role of the third sector in radical system transformation discourses.
Great concept and a timely one. Connecting the family to government services and their own communities at the end also makes it a sustainable one. Nice work!
Great Job, family is the strong hold of a country, that’s where leaders are born, bred and made, when families breakup nations fall!
Family, be it biological or at any of its forms, is the heart of all humanity!!! It is the unit where you learn to respect and restore dignity!!! It is the incubator of our future!!! all our efforts to protect families are efforts to protect future!! 👍🏽
Families are the building block of community and a nation. What better way to build and restore a nation than by strengthening families helping them to make their dreams into goals and realities. When families flourish the nation flourishes. Great concept - even one family can be a model for a whole community.
Wonderful idea to empower the children in a family. How will they be involved?
The tool includes and involves children in the process through child friendly methodology that is the WOW factor.
The process is designed and the facilitators are trained in a manner to ensure and maximize child and female participation to make the tool inclusive. It is in deed a wow factor which promotes inclusive decision making!!! 👨👩👧👦
Great concept. it is simply awesome coz the entire family is involved!!!
An amazing tool to strengthen our families and build the nation!
All sciences put together needs to achieve one purpose and the purpose lies in its entirety in the fabric of families. Therefore this is a great tool to strengthen families
The strength of a family, like the strength of an army, is in its loyalty to each other! AWESOME CONCEPT!
The holistic and integrated approach of child - family - community - state is a great model of sustainable change.
This is a good tool for families who are struggling to cope.
This is such an amazing and useful tool which enhances the unity of the family.
This is a great tool to understand the roles each member plays within the family and in turn understand each other better.
It is a great tool where the whole family is involved and all members including the children will feel a sense of belongingness and accountability to the family and community........great job👍
This is very important and timely tool in today's context. Family is a very important part of your everyday life. It is a bond that is unbreakable and helps in shaping our lives, that contributes to the community and the Nation.
Great thinking. A family is the smallest unit of governance, a family should have good governance by proving the members with the basic services for sustainable development. Basically family has all the attributes or principles of governance, such as structures and processes that are designed to ensure accountability, transparency, responsiveness, rule of law, stability, equity and inclusiveness, empowerment, and broad-based participation, without these would never represent a good family.
Sounds needed and interesting. But very ambitious, as it covers many topics. Main feedforward: get it down to the operational level! Still sound very abstract and I have difficluties how this could look life in a real day-tp-day-life-situation. Who is providing this service? Which methodology this person is using? Similar programs all often provided by different government services so far: why they are failing? What are the objections?
Thank you Dirk for your feed forward. The service will be provided by trained and skilled facilitators. A toolkit will be used to facilitate sessions with families. Yes I agree that similar programmes are available. The consistency and quality of support to the family is not emphasized by government service providers most often.
@Esther John Thanks Esther. My suggestion would be to look deeper into the methodology the facilitators are using. This is the entry point and what could make the difference from your concepts to other existing programs. You methodology can cover where government and also other services failed so far.
Model families shape our future... We need to support and strengthen them to not only to make them whole again but our whole community too. Well done!
sounds great, strengthening families and connecting to the right based approaches will make the community society stronger, but still the methodology is not clear, how to ensure the facilitators could successfully be connected to the families and what are binding opportunities? how to make sure government is accountable for its services?
Great concept and very appropriate in this time and day when families are falling apart without proper guidance and help. Many give up very quickly as they do not know how to address the issue and get help from a responsible outside source. Its wonderful that even the children are included as they will learn much.
