Abstract
This chapter discusses how the People’s Association (PA) has worked, and is working to foster social cohesion in Singapore. In particular, it focuses on the changes in contemporary Singapore that pose a challenge to the PA’s work and how the organisation is now updating its approaches to adapt. In particular, the PA faces challenges from an increasingly complex global environment, technological disruption and changes in Singapore’s social fabric. To keep relevant, the PA is shifting towards deeper relationship building and strengthening its outreach to more segments of society. It is also concurrently upgrading its Community Clubs located across the country while also taking its programmes beyond the clubs and into the neighbourhoods. By building social cohesion and a strong grassroots movement, the PA contributes to the overall strengthening of resilience among Singaporeans.
