Asset-based approaches to community development provide an innovative alternative to conventional needs-based approaches. In spite of the wide variety of “participatory approaches,” the community development process is, in far too many places, still being driven by NGOs and other external players, and not community members themselves. The purpose of this three-week certificate is to develop the capacity of mid to senior level development practitioners to
employ sustainable asset-based approaches which recognize the everyday experience, wisdom, skills and capacity that exist in all communities. Asset-based approaches include all types of assets – human, financial, social, physical and natural – but pay particularly close attention to how people access, organize and mobilize assets to move their agenda
forward. Fostering active citizen engagement, building a stronger civil society and creating local economic opportunity are central to asset-based approaches. The Certificate will examine approaches such as Appreciative Inquiry, Asset-Based Community Development, the Asset-Building Framework and the Sustainable Livelihoods Approach which can help communities to mobilize, restore and further develop their internal assets as a means of addressing fundamental issues such as poverty and injustice.
