Building Knowledge Together: How Local Five & Two Leaders Are Guiding Learning Cohorts

This year, we hosted our first-ever online mini course for the Five & Two Community-Centered Development Foundation’s curriculum. Groups in Colombia and Iraq formed Cohort Learning Groups, where participants worked through the self-guided modules individually, then came together to discuss, reflect, and share insights from their learning.

Each module is centered around one of our Community-Centered Development (CCD) Principles and includes a learning video, stories, community engagement tools, and reflection questions, bringing each principle to life. Seeing participants take ownership of their learning while building connections across communities has been deeply inspiring.

To make the course accessible to learners around the globe, it is available in Spanish, Arabic, and English, with a French version in progress. And the best part? You can take the course too! It’s fully self-guided, so you can explore the curriculum at your own pace and experience the ideas shaping community-centered development worldwide. Even better — invite a few friends to take the journey together!

We are deeply grateful for your support, which allows us to expand learning opportunities and nurture community-centered leaders across the globe.
