How We Did It: Poverty Truth Commission

The cost-of-living crisis is a live emergency facing councils and communities up and down the country.
Councils are searching for innovative ways to tackle the challenges that constant rising prices bring and get a deeper understanding from those it affects the most.
This session looked at one such tool – poverty truth commissions. We put Claire Vibert, leader of a complex and collaborative commission in Greater Manchester, in our hot seat.
This session focused on practical delivery:
- Who should be in the room from the very start?
- How do you get buy in from important local stakeholders?
- What do you do to ensure the project continues to have impact?
Participation in New Local events is free and exclusive to members of our Network. If you would like to find out more, please contact Stephanie.
