Governance Models for Community Sustainability

Governance Models for Community Sustainability

I have volunteered to be a member of a community based group that is working through a process for an Integrated Community Sustainability Plan. The group is now focusing on a governance model that could be developed as a way to sustain the momentum once the Plan development is complete and turned back to community groups for implementation. Does anyone have experience in an innovative governance model that is attractive, to draw in the various groups who have responsibility for advancing their indicators. We want to stay positive and not engage in a policing activity. Any suggestions are welcome.

	Governance Models I had the opportunity recently, through a community based global network revisioning process probably, to make a brief but concise research regarding governance models. My final proposal towards the group was the "translation" of the EU / Swedish+ Model for a smaller scale organization, combining a degree of orchestration and self-organization instruments and processes. It came out to be very interesting.
