The opening Keynote at the Toronto Summer Institute in July, 1996
featured John McKnight who is the Director of the Community Studies
Program at the Centre for Urban Affairs and Policy Research at
Northwestern University where he is a professor. John explains how to
build communities of capacity. He is a storyteller, a political philosopher,
a prophet and an activist. This video is a moving talk about building
communities where everyone can give their gifts as citizens. Community
building for John McKnight is not a sentimental journey, but a job to be
done by citizens, neighbours, families and friends. A compliment to the
video is the book The Careless Society. Audience: Everyone involved in
moving from a deficiency model, to a capacity building model - in
communities, schools, workplaces, human services etc.
