Trust Us, We Know Best - We're The Community! with Tracey Shepherd

Introducing Tracey Shepherd

August's episode is another gem brought to you through my Inspiring Communities connection (big shout out to the wonderful people that work there).

Tracey Shepherd, REAP Aotearoa National Director, on the committee for Cloudkids Educare and coordinator of Fab Feathy, a community-led development initiative in Pae Tū Mokai Featherston.

Our kōrero today centres around the incredible force of coming together as a community, supporting each other, and just bloody getting on with it.

In such a time of disconnect, it's more important than ever to reconnect.

In today's episode you'll learn:

  • The power of a community leading and doing it for themselves.

  • Invest in the outcomes you want, but adjust your thinking in how to achieve those outcomes.

  • The work that REAP Aotearoa and Fab Feathy are doing in leading community development.
