Strategic Planning for Villages & Towns
SECAD Partnership has been instrumental in assisting communities to carry out community consultation programmes and research for the development of strategic plans to shape future sustainable development.
Communities are guided to develop strategic projects that will reap the greatest long- term impact for their area. Two such examples include the towns of Carrigtwohill and Passage West in County Cork.
Since the launch of strategic five year plans in both areas in 2017, SECAD has continued to work with local steering groups and stakeholders as the implementation phase of the plans get underway.
SECAD may also provide support to individual community groups and social enterprises through the development of strategic plans to facilitate expansion and access additional resources. SECAD also supports communities via Tus and RSS community work placements. Click here to find out more.
