Wow! What a great institute this year. We met in Des Moines, Iowa at the Embassy Suites on the River on October 10-11, 2011 to discuss how everyone is using the Community Capital Framework in their work and research. Topics ranged from drought mitigation to historical applications to biofuels. I will be uploading copies of the powerpoints in the immediate future. The first upload though contains the notes (flip chart notes from presentations) as well as the working groups that were formed to guide our work for the next year.
We will also be making an announcement on the Institute so please check back often.

This year's Community Capitals Framework (CCF) Institute will feature several sessions on data collection, coding and analysis using the CCF in addition to small group sessions created by participants' work.
We are particularly interested in how the Community Capitals Framework is being using to understand the impact of community change work, leadership development, climate change, sustainability and community readiness and resiliency. We are also interested in strategies to engage communities and organizations using the Community Capitals Framework. Finally, we want to bring great minds together to discuss strategies for collecting and analyzing data that can help us better under successful community and system-level change using the CCF.
