What is an Unconference?

An unconference is a unique, participant-led gathering which brings together like-minded people around large scale conversations that matter! An (un)Conference can be hosted face to face or virtually and is a gathering hosted by a group of individuals, services or organisations who have noticed an emerging topic/issue in their field.

During the current global climate, this (un)Conference is an opportunity to gather virtually and connect with others, in order to discover new ways of thinking, during this important global shift.

The 2021 key Unconference themes are:

Community strengths, wisdom and resilience in times of crisis
Stories of co-creation, gathering and collectivism
Disrupting community development

The ABCD Unconference will feature 3 styles of sessions.

Inspire: Inspire through storytelling. Spark curiosity of participant lead outcomes, with interaction.

Innovate: Encourage skills development by sharing a practical example of an innovative and applied approach, whilst explaining tools and techniques used.

Initiate: Bringing together like-minded people around large scale conversations that matter to support the emergence of social innovation and transformation.
