Networks: '...the process by which relationships and contacts between people or organisations are established, nurtured and utilised for mutual benefit.' Alison Gilchrist: 'Community Development & Networking' (2000)
'Networking is a means of communicating and organising according to a common cause, and a means of providing access to information, support, resources and influence. As such, networking is central to community development practice.' Community Development Exchange
