Abstract:
A toolkit for strengths-based approach to strategic planning, encouraging participants to draw on their knowledge and understanding of their own community to identify assets that can be leveraged towards future vitality and success. Inspired by the medicine wheel’s four directions, the toolkit prompts the exploration of Where do we want to go?, What is our vision?, How are we going to get there?, and Act – Doing it. The completed toolkit has guided the progress and development of strategic planning for many Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities and organizations throughout Northern Ontario in their partnering work with NORDIK Institute.
