What does Dosti do? Print E-mail

Dosti’s aim is to support people to get the skills and power to make a difference to the quality of life of those that live and work in Dudley Borough.

Dosti seeks to do this by:
  • developing and engaging groups and networks, including those that would not normally be engaged;
  • building the capacity of community and voluntary sector networks to influence strategic decision making; and
  • making effective use of people, resources and funding.
 
Dosti does this through it's member networks, with the support of an elected executive and 2 members of staff. Dosti's Action Plan focuses on activities which promote connections between people, development of people, influence and challenge. The current Action Plan can be viewed from our downloads page.
