COMMUNITY/CONSENSUS BUILDING

Action Final Project Outline

In order to improve community communication and relationships in a public high school in Chicago, it is important to develop an action plan that incorporates the principles of negotiation put forth by Fisher and Ury. To begin with, it is essential to create a safe and inviting environment where all stakeholders feel welcome to participate in the conversation. This may involve setting up physical space for dialogue, as well as establishing ground rules that encourage respect and open-mindedness. Once a safe space has been created, the next step is to foster a spirit of collaboration among all parties involved. This means working towards a collective vision for the school community and developing a shared understanding of the issues at hand. Finally, it is important to maintain open lines of communication and keep all stakeholders informed throughout the process. By following these steps, it will be possible to improve community communication and relationships in a public high school in Chicago.
