Presentation of the TLCD-project
and aims of Laboratory: Margo, Sven andJenny

11.15 Time Machine
Participants entered the time machine were they were invited to go back in time andplace to revisit each of the relays where the host presented outcomes and questions
Feedback from Relay Time Machine
Brussels Relay
At the session we looked at the report and then explored what ideas wecan explore with a view to implementation. One example of this is in theGaraget here – how do you keep the dialogue.
Sustainability as key word.
What do we mean by needs assessment in TLCD. Are there standards thatneed to be met for professionals?
After all the relays are complete how do we combine what we learn?
Budapest’
Ilona will make a note but would emphasise 2 things1)Wider view –important to involve as many actors of society as we canbecause people are closed in their own limitations and no analysis of the
 
neighbourhood, the country or Europe. We need to train them as catalystsfor a Training and Learning process2)Against the fashion of Good Practice because sometimes good practicecan happen after failure or conflict. We don’t want a sugar-coated Europeand we don’t want a Europe of window-dressing.3)CD cannot be service delivery.
UK
Every group was different. Sue felt under pressure to do a lot of the talkingand describe what they did. Some of the issues for Community Workersand then the process and what that means for Training and Learning for CD. There are challenges for Community Workers that are morefundamental than the challenges for TLCD.
How do Community Workers feedback to the community what they havebeen doing?
What are we measuring and how doe we feedback that measurement?That is also important for TLCD.
Slovakia, Banksa Bystrica
The main thing we focussed on were the tensions between CO and CD.When we were in BB we tried to define.
CO came up as a strategy and a tool and can be used in a cycle
Not comparable
Social Planning and Social Policy
Berlin
Started with main conclusions from Relay looking at collective publicactions. How to create learning experiences for professionals and for activists?
Analysis of starting situation is an important foundation of any actionincluding TLCD
How to find ways to pool different kinds of knowledge and bring themtogether in a way that is accessible to different groups.
We need different and adaptable means of interaction.
Importance of relation building including public relations.
General Reflections:
 
It was a big challenge to shape the relay visit 5 more times when we thought thatwe had already done it!
It also helped to shape some new conclusions.
