Interested in providing training-workshops or capacity-building courses?

Lindsay Upton from Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS)

Building capacity is at the heart of community development and community empowerment. When communities are well organised, inclusive, influential and cohesive they create a positive environment for people to enjoy a good quality of life.

As part of MECOSS' work to increase the capacity of individuals and groups working at a community level in Manukau East, we are keen to open up channels for them to access development opportunities.

If you're interested in providing training-workshops or capacity-building courses to enrich voluntary or not-for-profit community groups and social enterprise organisations, or you'd like to suggest a course you'd like to see MECOSS consider running, please email lindsay.upton@mecoss.org.nz

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
