Tamarack - An Institute for Community Engagement
Tamarack Home Learning Centre Vibrant Communities Community Life
Vibrant Communities Canada Presentations by Mark Cabaj
 

Though all Tamarack workshops are tailored to the specific needs of the contracting group, we also develop customized workshops, presentations or learning events in our knowledge areas for a local need or event.

Using a unique development process, Tamarack co-designs workshops, presentations and learning events to explore concepts and ideas relevant to you. We work in partnership with you to deeply understand the issues your organization or community is facing and goals you hope to achieve.

On this page, you'll find workshops and presentation notes that Mark has created for a variety of audiences.
