SenseofCommunity.com . No. 440.

SenseofCommunity.com is an international meeting place for people with a scientific or professional interest in the study or application of a sense of community.

A sense of community is one of those basic essential human experiences, a perception of one's connection with others, that we need for our well being. While many lament the loss of this sense of community, it is alive and well throughout the world. We are hoping to bring people together through this web site in order to better understand how to develop a sense of community and address its challenges so we can bring about healthy, socially just, and equitable societies.

Sponsored by:
Association for the Study and Development of Community (ASDC), a research and development organization for community capacity building and social problem solving. ASDC represents a network of leading community development practitioners and scientists in the United States and Europe, with offices in Gaithersburg, Maryland and Milan, Italy. ASDC combines the principled, rigorous use of scientific methods with practical tools to foster learning and improved capacity for social change.
