Community Cohesion Strategy
Rochdale Borough’s Safer Communities Partnership has developed a
draft Community Cohesion Strategy for 2012-2014. This is due to be
published this year.
Community Cohesion is about supporting diverse groups of people
to successfully live alongside each other. A key component of this
is promoting understanding and harmonious relationships between
existing residents and newer residents to the borough and
developing a shared sense of belonging.
This strategy demonstrates our commitment to providing a strong
foundation for a cohesive borough by tackling inequalities,
promoting fairness and empowering confident communities. Over the
last year much work has been undertaken to strengthen and support
the development of this strategy to ensure the resulting programme
is evidence based and targeted at locally identified issues.
