Brief Description
The Leadership Programme in Urban Transformation provides you with the necessary values, knowledge and skills to enable you to serve as an incarnational and transformational spiritual leader in your daily encounters of current urban challenges. The programme will enable you to read, reimagine and reconstruct your specific urban community in order to connect with the myriad of people who inhabit the space. Drawing from stories of hope from across the world, the programme provides you with an opportunity to implement a better approach in your faith-based organisation, community outreach project or urban congregation to make your community more socially inclusive
