This paper introduces "Co-Production" as an emerging approach in philanthropy, challenging traditional models of giving. It highlights a shift towards reciprocal partnerships between professionals and individuals/communities, where welfare must be "earned" rather than freely given. The concept emphasizes that everyone, including those typically considered recipients of aid, possesses valuable assets crucial for community building and problem-solving, moving away from passive recipient models. This new approach advocates for practical techniques that transform relationships and foster shared responsibility.
