Covid-19 Recovery Though Covid-19 Recovery was a thematic area in 2021, this is still a topic that all local authorities are wrestling with. We would like to fund projects that involve local communities in co-designing co- operative initiatives that would help our members and their communities to recover from the impacts of the pandemic. 1. Covid 1. Covid- -19 Recovery Recovery 19
Following the pandemic, many local authorities are thinking about how they can better support their local VCSFE sector, including through the development of investment strategies. However, key to this approach is how we work with the VCFSE sector, for example, through sharing data and intelligence about local communities. We would like to fund projects that aim to promote greater collaboration between local authorities and the VCFSE sector, with models of co-operation that can be replicated across the Network. 2. Sharing Sharing Data with 3 Data with 3rd rd Sector Sector Organisations Organisations
Many CCIN councils represent areas and communities suffering with high levels of inequality and deprivation (9 of the top 30 councils listed in the Multiple Indices of Deprivation are CCIN members). We would like to fund projects that aim to develop partnership projects to tackle poverty and inequality, helping our members to build back fairer from the pandemic. 3. Tackling Tackling Inequality Inequality
The levelling-up agenda is gaining momentum across the country, with many local authorities considering how they can access funding to support their town centres, create jobs, and grow their local economies. We would like to fund projects that take a co- operative approach to levelling-up, considering how we can encourage good economic growth, that benefits everyone in our communities. 4. Co Co- -operative operative Approaches to Approaches to Levelling Levelling- -up up
