Foundation Session

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

The foundations sessions will ground us in an experience of creative engagement and interactive processing.  

The goals of the workshop are:

- to help you understand the difference between  complex vs complicated challenges and how to engage with them

- equip you with the skills and self awareness needed to take action when dealing with complex systems, where relationships are affected by multiple dimensions of power dynamics, lived experiences and history.    

Participants will understand how to apply this information in order to build a more equitable and collaborative world.

The session will close with a series of action-directed questions that can be answered throughout your time at the conference.
