Join Us: Community Builders Community of Practice, 

Welcome! Thank you for your interest in being part of a global network of international development, peacebuilding, and humanitarian practitioners working across different regions, institutions, and contexts who work in the design or management of networks and communities of practice.

Our intention is to co-create an organic, collaborative, inclusive space to support each other in this important work by: 

  • Offering a safe space to learn, share, and exchange ideas and good practices for building effective communities and networks, especially communities of practice (CoPs), and 
  • Advancing the field of CoP building by collectively addressing challenges and identifying ways and practices to improve the implementation and effectiveness of CoPs within the sectors. 
We started this initiative in October 2023. Since then, close to 200 people from 50+ countries on six continents joined us.

Would you like to join? Please review the Community Charter we co-created, and if it resonates with your needs and aspirations, fill out the form below!

As we strive to build a truly diverse, global community, we realize the importance of language access and inclusivity. While the main community language so far is English, we are asking about language preferences to understand the various needs, and thus, attempt to address them as we continue walking together on this journey. 
Please provide the name, a 1-sentence description (and URL, if applicable) of any or all communities, or networks you are part of.
Our intention is to co-create an organic, collaborative space to support each other building effective communities and networks in international development, peacebuilding and humanitarian sectors.
