"Communities of Practice are groups of people who share concern, a set of problems, or a passion about a topic, and who deepen their knowledge and expertise in this area by interacting on an ongoing basis."
While these communities may organize naturally, the challenge of 'stewarding' or cultivating such communities - making their 'practice' more proactive and systematic. may be the keystone to leveraging the benefits of participation in all levels of society."

Agenda facilitation roles are claimed each month for the next month's session. These include(for example) faciliating an opener, sharing facilitation challenges, facilitation desing, evaluation, the closing. Each of us attends as often as we can. This is not another "organization" that you can join, it is an on-going and fluid learning cohort that is a collegial resource and support for your work and learning path.
