A collaborative community capacity-building and place activation project designed to empower early residents of the Sienna Wood estate to lead local initiatives and build a connected, resilient neighborhood.
Town Team Movement was engaged by Stockland to support community leadership and placemaking at Sienna Wood. The project focused on building local capacity for residents to lead their own initiatives, strengthen neighbourhood connections, and activate public spaces in ways that reflect local interests and needs. This work supported the emergence of the Hilbert Community Network as a locally-led community group.
- Undertook early-stage engagement to understand local needs, interests and priorities
- Built relationships through pop-up events and community connection activities
- Facilitated workshops to support residents to learn how to plan and deliver local activations
- Supported community members to design and run their own events with guidance from TTM
- Provided ongoing mentoring to emerging community leaders (Hilbert Community Network)
- Adapted approach over time based on community feedback, readiness and participation levels
