What makes a network work? (PDF, 6.37MB)
SKiLD's overall aim is to give development workers the skills and
knowledge they need to support groups well. A key way of doing this
is by encouraging development workers to support each other via
local networks.
To find out if there's a network in your area, have a look at
our initial list of development worker networks in England. It's by
no means complete, so please contact
Alan Turner if you know
about any others.
SKiLD on navcaboodle
Navcaboodle is a social network for the third sector.
Navcaboodle has been developed for colleagues to network, discuss
and share their experiences in a number of ways:
- Groups - join groups to discuss particular topics. Some groups
are open to all and some are private to enable confidential
discussion.
- Discussion forums - take part in discussions both within groups
and in the general forum.
- Share photos and videos
- Events - find out more about NAVCA events and promote your own
using the events calendar.
Many development workers are already registered on navcaboodle
and are taking part in the discussions in the SKiLD group and many
of the other groups as well.
For more information and
to register for free with the site visit navcaboodle.
Development Workers' Network
NAVCA runs DWNet, a network for development workers in local
