Tools, Techniques and Resources for communities
CIEL is excited to introduce 69 Tools, Techniques and Resources for communities. There are many tools and techniques that communities can use to assist them in moving forward. CIEL has examined many of them and attempted to classify them so that a community can find a tool or technique appropriate for their phase on the Communities Matrix.
CIEL, where possible, sought to classify tools and techniques that were relatively simple to self- administer, easy to understand and relatively inexpensive. Their accessibility varies: some are available online or in print and can be self-administered, others could be conducted by a facilitator with a broad knowledge of community processes, while a few would require a facilitator with specialized training.
