Deakin University, Faculty of Health HDS733 Community Capacity Building - Theory and Practice for Inclusion - Trimester 2, 2020 WELCOME Welcome to HDS733 Community Capacity Building - Theory and Practice. My name is Dr Jo Watson. I am the Unit Chair for this unit. I am a member of the Disability and Inclusion team in the School of Health and Social Development at Deakin, and the course director of Deakin's Graduate Certificate of Disability and Inclusion. In this unit, you will be introduced to community development and community capacity building theory and practice as it is applied to disability. You will develop knowledge and skills in community engagement, inclusive consultation and cross sector collaboration. The unit is online and we will be holding regular online interactive seminars. The timing of these will be held on Thursday evenings. We look forward to meeting you during these seminars. I warmly welcome you to the unit. This unit guide provides you with the key information about this unit. For the best chance of success, you should read it carefully and refer to it frequently throughout the trimester. Your unit site (accessed in DeakinSync) also provides information about your rights and responsibilities. We will assume you have read this before the Unit commences and we expect you to refer to it throughout the trimester. Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation, you may be learning in a way that is new to you. We appreciate your flexibility and dedication to learning.

ABOUT THIS UNIT Community development theory and practice as it is applied to disability and inclusion is the focus of this unit. Participation in the community and the development of accessible social, economic, and citizenship opportunities for people with a disability requires that mainstream society builds its capacity to include people with disability. Students will develop knowledge and skills in community engagement, inclusive consultation and research and cross sector collaboration. A critical analysis of barriers and solutions to participation and inclusion will underpin this unit. Unit development in response to student feedback Every trimester, we ask students to tell us, through eVALUate, what helped and hindered their learning in each unit. You are strongly encouraged to provide constructive feedback for this unit when eVALUate opens (you will be emailed a link). eVALUate assists us in determining whether any improvements are required. This is the fifth time we have run this unit. The first time was in Trimester 2, 2016. We have made some minor changes to the unit content and structure based on previous students' feedback. Based on our past students' feedback, this trimester we have reduced the required reading/viewing/listening content for this unit. We have provided students with more flexibility in terms of what material they are required to engage with and in what format. If you have any concerns about the Unit during the trimester, please contact the unit teaching team - preferably early in the trimester - so we can discuss your concerns, and make adjustments, if appropriate.
