#CommDev18 Community Development Society - 49th International Conference

Community development educators will share their dreams and plan a common future to strengthen international collaboration about pedagogy, learning tools and how to exchange ideas, intellectual products, students and educators. The workshop is building on the development of the Global Community Development Exchange (GCDEX), the beta version of which was launched when at the 2016 CDS conference in Minneapolis St Paul. This workshop also builds on a 2017 community development summit in New Zealand. Participants will learn about the latest iteration of Indigenous Approaches and other resources to the GDEX and will be engaged in a structured discussion about global collaboration among colleges and universities. The workshop is also structured to produce a work plan for global collaboration.
