The Improving Local Partnerships Unit, based at NAVCA, has
commissioned some research on the skills and development needs of
people who are engaged in representing the local third sector
on thematic partnerships of Local Strategic
Partnerships. Download the one page
briefing document. This research is in two
parts:
- A national call out
for descriptions of skills and abilities
that representatives from the local third sector are using in their
roles on thematic partnerships in LSPs. For more information
on this part and how to contribute, please download the
call out document.
- Interviewing 24 representatives based in two regions -
Yorkshire and the Humber and the North East - to find out
what skills they are using and where they might need further
support. If your network/organisation is in one of these
regions and might like to express an interest in providing two such
volunteers, please first email the researcher, Steve Skinner, who
will send you further details:
steve@steveskinnerassociates.org.uk.
Expressions of interest need to be received by 24
January.
Stronger Voices research will help to inform future training and
learning programmes. If you would like to know more
