Advancing Change in Disruptive Times
Dates: Wednesday, April 20, 2022 | 1:00 – 2:00 pm EST / 11:00 – 12:00 pm MT
Speakers: Sonja Miokovic and Sylvia Cheuy
The nature of change is changing. Today the issues communities are facing are increasingly complex and interconnected. At the same time the urgency for change is changing and the significance of these issues – equity, social justice, truth & reconciliation, climate change and pandemic recovery – increases the importance of finding meaningful ways to address them.
For changemakers, this is a time of tremendous opportunity as well as a time of challenge. While there is widely shared acceptance that new approaches and skills are needed, knowing what those skills are and investing time to develop and practice them isn’t always so easy even when we know it will enable us to be more effective and efficient in advancing meaningful and lasting change.
This webinar invites you to join a dialogue with Sonja Miokovic and Sylvia Cheuy, of Tamarack’s Learning Centre team to share what we are learning about how community changemakers can strengthen our practice and to seize this opportunity to co-create impact that lays the foundation for lasting change.
