Exploring Transformational Governance - open house

Transformational Governance Collective

A session exploring the potential of a co-learning community for innovative governance to drive change and transform our systems.

<h3>We are a group of practitioners passionate about the<strong> transformative potential of innovative governance</strong>, including the contribution good governance can make to <strong>disrupting systems of oppression. </strong></h3><h3>We are being supported by Lankelly Chase to test the need and scope for a <strong>resourced community of practice to undertake an ongoing, collaborative inquiry</strong> into this important topic. We are organising a short series of activities in June as a way of inviting <strong>new ideas, perspectives and potential collaborators </strong>into the conversation.</h3><p>Join for this <strong>open house online session </strong>during which you can discuss <strong>project possibilities</strong> for this work with the current stewarding group or take some reflective time to reflect on and add to the open miro board. </p><p>We’ve designed the session so that you can join for one or all of the sessions, whatever suits you and your schedule.There will be a mix of conversation spaces and opportunities to work alone depending on your needs.</p><p></p><h2>We’ll be starting conversations at the following times:</h2><h3>14:00 - Exploring governance<strong> metaphors and analogies</strong> </h3><p>Governance ​can ​seem ​quite ​abstract. ​We’ll spend some time exploring ​different ​ways ​of ​thinking ​about ​it ​and ​framing ​it. What ​metaphors ​and ​analogies ​might ​offer ​different ​reflections ​on ​how ​we ​understand ​and ​work ​with ​governance?</p><h3>15:00 - Sharing stories and<strong> experiences of transformative governance  </strong></h3><p>Exploring how can we develop and sustain approaches to governance that work with power in a healthy way and that can transform systems of inequality.</p><h3>16:00 ​- What <strong>spaces and support</strong> do we need on this journey? </h3><p>What would a well resource community of practice look and feel like?</p><p></p><h2>Who this event is for:</h2><p>We rarely make space to engage with others about our governance challenges, so we’ll create a little bit of space together to try out what it feels like and where this could go. </p><p>You may<strong> </strong>already be<strong> experimenting with innovative governance in your group, organisation or network</strong> and<strong> </strong>looking for opportunities to <strong>share learning, inspiration and support </strong>with others. Perhaps you are part of an organisation, network or collaboration working to challenge systems of oppression and want to explore how good governance can make power more visible and distributed and transform how we take decisions and collaborate across difference.</p><p><strong>Our focus is on groups, organisations and collaborations seeking to support positive social change in the UK. </strong>We’re very open to sharing learning with those engaged in similar inquiries beyond the UK and we know that context can be important when thinking about governance.</p><h3></h3><h3>Resources for participation</h3><p>It is important to us that a lack of resources does not act as a barrier to participation in this process.  We are open to paying for people’s time or for support needs such as child care if that will enable you to contribute.  We can offer £50 for attendance at one of the conversations or £200 for the full session. </p><p>We seek to operate on a basis of trust and transparency - let us know what you need by emailing mailto:transformationalgovernance@gmail.com.  </p><p><em>Love &amp; solidarity</em></p><h3>Transformational Governance Stewarding Group</h3><p>Asif Afridi (brap), Joe Doran (Lankelly Chase), Jasmine Castledine (School of System Change), Kate Swade (Shared Assets), Louise Armstrong (Forum for the Future), Sarah McAdam (Transition Network) </p>
