My fear is that much as the investment and institutional support offered to IRD processes can enter doom-loops, so too can community engagement with such spaces. As the messaging around participation gets increasingly negative and hostile, the harder it becomes for people to choose to engage. The result must therefore be fewer relationships being formed and less solidarity and understanding. #interfaith #interreligious #dialogue #communityrelations #communitycohesion https://lnkd.in/d8bAe9hc

Belonging can have its shadow sides - when a sense of belonging to one group causes us to harm those we feel aren't part of it. How can we make belonging less polarized and more inclusive? Kim Samuel of the Samuel Centre for Social Connectedness argues that we need the architecture for a sense of shared purpose: "we need to build social infrastructure for #belonging" through investments in things like volunteerism, countering disinformation, and "high-quality schools, community centers, public transit, arts, and social services, and health care." https://lnkd.in/gfp8uCih

On #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, let’s reframe the conversation around #suicideprevention. Insights from the listening sessions that informed the #NationalStrategy emphasized the need for culturally responsive strategies so that our prevention intents match community realities. By partnering with community groups and individuals with #livedexperience, we have a better chance of creating meaningful and lasting change. #WSPD #ChangingTheNarrative #CultureMatters

Community listening involves assembling people to examine distinctive problems and facilitating dialogue. The objective is to understand diverse perspectives within the community, encourage mutual understanding, identify common ground, and inspire collaborative efforts. This approach improves community engagement, boosts shared values, and empowers citizens to collectively address challenges and contribute to local decision-making processes. #civility #civildiscourse #civildialogue #communitybuilding #community #activelistening #mutualunderstanding #commonground #dispute #disputeresolution

Inclusive stakeholder engagement at local level is crucial for fostering safe, inclusive, and resilient communities. By involving a diverse array of stakeholders, including marginalized groups, local businesses, and civil society organizations, the community can address the unique needs and perspectives of all its members. This comprehensive approach ensures more effective and sustainable solutions to local challenges. Including religious leaders in these dialogues is particularly important, as they often hold significant influence and trust within their communities. Their participation can facilitate broader acceptance of initiatives, bridge cultural and social divides, and promote unity and cooperation in achieving community resilience. #communitydevelopment #resilientcommunities #SDGs #Peacebuilding #safeandinclusivecommunities #ruraandurbanplanning
