Tackling Poverty Together Networking Events - Dundee

The Poverty Alliance will be facilitating a networking event in Dundee on the 26th of October which is designed to bring together a range of local groups and organisations to discuss issues of key concern to the fight against poverty. The meeting will be participative, and focused on discussion and on generating networking opportunities to tackle poverty in general as well as around key issues. The meeting will be small scale to allow time for discussion and debate.

The event will focus on:

• * Encouraging networking around key poverty issues
• * Responding locally: Identifying networking and follow up opportunities to tackle poverty

The discussions will be led by staff from the Poverty Alliance. The event is an opportunity to strengthen networking and share good practice. At the end of the event we will have an improved understanding of key poverty issues in Scotland, improved sharing and networking and identified ways to work together at both the local & national levels.The networking meetings are free and open to all groups and organisations that are concerned about poverty in Scotland. Statutory agencies, local civil society organisations - community and voluntary organisations, trade union branches, faith groups - will find the discussions useful.
