CSD Network was formed to explore a simple question: "how can we best be human, together?" Over 4 decades, we collaborated with  a wide network people in exploring that question at personal, community, organisational and societal levels.

​

Three key concepts arise from that question, and have created the foundation of much of our work: 

• Community: Spirited, supported diverse people in relationship with each other.

• Spirit: The internal energy of individuals which, when connected, creates collective energy.

• Development: Unleashing potential within individuals, organisations and communities.

 

Thus the name 'CSD Network'. 

​

In the last 25 years  a lot of this collaboration has been focused on Reconciliation; particularly exploring what we non-Aboriginal people can do to improve relationships of trust and even partnership with Aboriginal people, organisations and communities; relationships that have been damaged by historic and contemporary wrong-doing. Obviously enough, this work has always  been done in partnership with Aboriginal colleagues. 

​

These days, after decades of (enriching) busy-ness as the Director of CSD, I'm trying to step off the treadmill. But I still feel passionate about this rich, mysterious experience of being human together. So if you're interested in collaboration or dialogue around any aspects of that, here I am; let's have a chat. Maybe email me (my preference) at  tim@csdnetwork.com.au  or just message me on my LinkedIn or facebook pages.
