The Total Community Planner guides community leaders through a four-stage asset-based transformation process — rooted in the Anglican Alliance's community transformation approach and powered by the Academy of Life Planning's GAME Plan framework.
WHAT IT DOES Works through four stages with the community as the subject:
G — Goals: Community story, values, asset inventory and purpose
A — Actions: Obstacles, project ideas and 90-day action plan
M — Means: Human capital, livelihoods and flourishing future
E — Execution: Governance, accountability and 90-day review cycle Produces a Total Community Transformation Plan — owned entirely by the community, built from what it already has.
THREE MANDATES
· Eliminate poverty — fullness of life for all
· Challenge injustice — resist unjust structures and exploitation
· Safeguard creation — sustainability and ecological flourishing
WHO IT IS FOR Community leaders, church facilitators, development workers and neighbourhood organisers working for community-led transformation.
HOW TO USE IT Start a new conversation. The AI will guide you through the full process. Return every 90 days to deepen the plan based on what your community has learned through action.
