Community Empowerment Media projects

The Community Empowerment Collective (CEC) is a web-based not-for-profit association working to produce, translate, and make available free training material for strengthening communities to combat poverty. The CEC training starts with the idea that capacity is developed when the community is stimulated to develop itself, and emphasises “How-to” rather than theory about the empowerment methodology.
