Capacity Building toolkits

About a year ago in my consultancy role with Faith Regen Foundation I prepared a step-by-step, activity-based ‘Toolkit’ on consultation and representation aimed at voluntary and community groups across London.

This toolkit is part of a set of six that are available from Enfield College as part of a project delivering free Capacity Building Training and Support for Voluntary and Community organisations.

The six toolkits will be ‘how-to’ guides on topics linked to the project's training units but dealing with specific aspects of a more general topic. They are stand-alone guides although they could underpin some of the mentoring and consultancy provided by the Project. The toolkits cover:

• Developing and Running Training Programmes


• Policies and Procedures


• Consultation and Representation


• Conference and Event Management


• Appropriate Work:Life Balance


• Sustainability Planning
  

Typically, each toolkit comprises:

• An overview of the topic


• Checklists


• Flowcharts and other organisational aids


• Suggested activities


• Sources of further information and useful contacts
