SUMMARY:The Art of Facilitation: Participatory Facilitator Training + Happy Hour
DESCRIPTION:We believe that practicing the art of facilitation creates equitable\, productive\, joyful\, and connecting spaces\, so that people can fully participate\, contribute\, and collaborate. \nIf “facilitation” is\, at its root\, the invisible process of making things easier\, how can we equip ourselves as facilitators to create ease and openness? How can we practice a form of facilitation that is in alignment with our values and in service to creating a more democratic and just world? \nIn this workshop\, GWI workers will share their go-to facilitation practices\, including how to prepare a facilitation plan\, how to hold space during a gathering\, and how to guide and organize a group towards a shared goal over time. We will go over tools and concepts that have been helpful to us in our work\, whether as workshop leaders\, cohort facilitators\, or community builders. Our goal is to provide clarity and grounding for those stepping into the ongoing practice of being a participatory facilitator. We come to this work with curiosity and humility\, and as co-learners on this journey with you! \nThis workshop is for seasoned facilitators and beginners alike. \nFor more on our approach to facilitation and some of the resources that inspire us\, you can explore our Good Work in Groups collection. In particular\, check out the post: How to be a Participatory Facilitator. \nThe workshop will include formal instruction and will conclude with an informal Happy Hour for participants to further connect and share their experiences. \nMORE INFO + REGISTER
