Community Cohesion Partnership
The broad working definition is that a Cohesive Community is one where:
- there is a Common Vision and a sense of belonging for all Communities.
- the diversity of people’s different backgrounds and circumstances is appreciated and positively valued.
- those from different backgrounds, have similar life opportunities.
In essence Community Cohesion goes beyond race and social inclusion. Numerous other factors have to be addressed if fragmentation is to be avoided such as economic deprivation and relations with young people.
The Community Cohesion Partnership brings together Key stakeholders from the Statutory, Private, Voluntary and Community sector to promote Community Cohesion throughout the Redcar and Cleveland area and to:
- Co-ordinate Community Cohesion activities between Partner agencies and communities, sharing learning, knowledge and good practice.
- Create opportunities for training and awareness, raising Community Cohesion issues through a programme of activities, publicity and marketing.
- Prepare quarterly reports to the Stronger Communities Partnership summarising Community Cohesion activity within the Redcar & Cleveland Area.
