Community Cohesion

As such we want to encourage all individuals to align their values of equal and fair living by learning more about one another, to help build a more tolerant and understanding living space for all.

On this page you will find useful links which will increase your knowledge on various communities as well as help and advice on ways to improve community cohesion.

What is Community Cohesion?
