Summary

Strong social connections make communities more resilient. But today Australians have fewer close friends and local connections than in the past, and more of us say we have no-one to turn to in tough times. How can we turn this trend around? Here, Andrew Leigh and Nick Terrell look at some of the most successful community organisations and initiatives, from conversation groups to community gardens, from parkrun to Pub Choir, to discover what really works. They explore ways to encourage philanthropy and volunteering, describe how technology can be used effectively, and introduces us to remarkable and inspirational leaders
