Gather people's views on Community Planning

We need to gather people's views on Community Planning and proposals for communities to participate in decision-making in the Glasgow Community Planning Partnership.

Local activists and volunteers from community groups/voluntary organisations may have experience of previous regeneration programmes e.g. Social Inclusion Partnerships, Priority Partnerships, and Urban Programme.

Is Community Planning another programme to ensure the lid is kept on any challenging community voices or can we expect communities to be at the heart of Community Planning in Glasgow?

Community Engagement Consultation Document was launched by the Glasgow Community Planning Partnership on 22nd August 2005. It can be downloaded from the website at:
http://www.glasgowcpp.org.uk/

How should communities be involved in Community Planning? People could add their ideas to the blog from now and until the end of October 2005. We could collate their suggestions and comments in to a collective response to the consultation.
