This session, run over two half days, offers practical tools and stories for co-designing between worlds while centering care, solidarity and supporting sustainable self-determination.

Everyone is welcome. And, we especially encourage mob, trans folks and young people to come along. We have special pricing available for the communities we're part of.

We encourage attendees to come with openness to new and old questions, to not having it all figured out, going slowly and being in solidarity with our many strengths and struggles towards justice.

We learned the term 'sustainable self determination' from our friends at Kowa Collaboration.

session description

We’ll yarn, connect and learn about:

reclaiming co-creation as something mob have done for thousands of years
exploring our roles and obligations in co-creation
exploring how we 'bake in' partnership from the beginning
supporting many communities to reclaim authorship from beginning to end, choosing roles
doing co-creation and co-production in ways that are more accessible and accountable to communities

Through our partnership, we’ll model bicultural co-facilitation.

what to expect

starting slowly, not being put on the spot to share
having a detailed access guide beforehand and agenda
having choices in how you take part
not having cringey icebreakers or forced fun
taking regular breaks (one per hour, if you need more you can take it)

In one day, you won't learn how to deliver workshops or facilitate co-creation. Facilitating co-creation takes time, experience and supervision to develop.

📚 you get

a few tasks (you choose) before the session
take-away digital learning materials
new or strengthened connections with peers and other practitioners
time to reflect, ask questions and be outside your usual ‘work’

who is this session is for

We welcome people of all backgrounds and suggest this session is most useful if you:

are already working with communities in some capacity (this could be in a volunteer or community-based role)
already have a basic understanding of lived experience, co-design and engaging with power and oppression

This session is not for people:

looking for basic cultural competence training (this isn't it)
looking for co-design 101 (if this is you, we recommend our Essentials course)
working solely in for-profit or commercial spaces

accessibility

we try to design learning with many access needs in mind, with a focus on:

letting you know what to expect beforehand in words, video and images
giving choices with explicit permission to come as you are and normalising many ways to be

not putting anyone on the spot to talk - speak only if you want to
not focusing on anything too hard or for too long

valuing what everyone brings to this space
facilitating in a way to focus on collective learning
giving you things to take away afterward to remember the learning

You can let us know about additional learning or access needs, cultural needs, sensory needs or learning preferences. We’ll work hard to meet those needs and may have some limitations with the workshop format, that we’ll communicate with you.
