JOHN MCKNIGHT,

CO-DIRECTOR OF THE ABCD INSTITUTE, NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY

John McKnight, John P. Kretzmann and Cormac Russell.

“I believe that Nurture Development is uniquely placed to provide thought leadership and practical support in promoting more place based, citizen centred approaches throughout the UK and beyond. I highly recommend Nurture Development and am proud to have them as strategic partners.

“As the UK moves towards a renegotiation of its social contracts – putting citizens at the centre of democratic life, with Government and civil society professionals in a support role – a commitment at all levels to focusing on the capacities of citizens, not their deficits, will be critical to the success of this bold and exciting national process.

“Asset-Based Community Development and other strengths-based approaches have much to offer in this regard and I believe that Nurture Development is uniquely placed to provide thought leadership and practical support in promoting more place based, citizen centred approaches throughout the UK and beyond.

“I highly recommend Nurture Development and am proud to have them as strategic partners.”
