With a foreword by Anthony Kelly

Designed as a yearlong guided workbook, The Community Builder's Journal invites you to experiment with building community in your street, neighbourhood, workplace, or wherever life places you. Part reflective journal, part practical guide, this book offers weekly ideas, stories, questions, and invitations to try something new. Organised into twelve monthly themes, it supports a year-long rhythm of deepening awareness and purposeful action.

You'll explore how to build small groups, sustain collective energy, and respond to conflict. You'll reflect on what gets in the way, be it personal doubt, social fear, or structural barriers, and find grounded ways forward. Through diverse lenses - including social, economic, cultural, ecological, and political - you'll reimagine what's possible in the places and communities you care about.

Whether used on your own, in a small group, or within a broader community of practice, this journal offers not just ideas, but encouragement to live them. Plus, each month includes a recipe from the Nundah Community Enterprise Cooperative-a small reminder that community is also made around shared tables.
