2012, Centre for Regional Economic and Social Research, Sheffield Hallam University
How to use this guidance This is not a step-by-step guide. It provides a framework to guide efforts to mainstream community cohesion and spotlights key success factors. Local authorities are encouraged to use the guide in different ways. Some will already be mainstreaming community cohesion and might only dip into the guide for new ideas or to refresh practice. Others with less experience of mainstreaming might want to work through all sections of the guide. The guide is organised into three distinct parts: Part 1 outlines why it is important to mainstream community cohesion and the benefits that can flow from doing so. It introduces and defines mainstreaming and community cohesion in Wales and highlights the close ties between the community cohesion agenda and the responsibilities of local authorities under the Equality Duty. Part 2 provides a guide to mainstreaming community cohesion across the local authority. It is organised into four sections: • committed and motivated leadership Mainstreaming Review Embedding Cohesion Understanding Cohesion Leadership on Cohesion Barriers to Mainstreaming Evidence from the Evaluation of Getting on Together
