Y newid mawr rhwng Cynefin a rhaglenni traddodiadol yw nad oes gan y Cydlynwyr Lle gyllideb.  Yn hytrach, maen nhw’n gweithio i feithrin cysylltiadau cynhyrchiol ac i helpu i chwalu’r rhwystrau rhwng cymunedau a’r gwasanaethau sy’n cael eu darparu iddynt.  Mae Cynefin yn rhoi pŵer i gymunedau i fod yn gyfrifol am greu eu newid positif eu hunain.
The crucial difference between Cynefin and traditional delivery programmes is that Place Coordinators hold no budget.  Instead they work to build productive relationships and to help break down the barriers between communities and the services that are provided to them. Cynefin empowers communities to take responsibility for creating their own positive change.
