Edgar Cahn in his book No More Throw-Away People relates the parable of the Blobs and Squares to explain the co-production imperative.

The kitchen is where the MAGIC happens! It's a metaphor for co-creating & sharing.

 

how we see & how we do

 

  • Asset oriented practice, unlocking the creativity and potential within individuals and groups that make up community. (I've learned to work with ABCD principles through the ABCD institute, Nurture Development UK, click here for more info!)

  • MAP assets within communities (building from within) defining places of resilience, support, connection and collaboration.Empower local residents to become co-creators of their future, rather than clients, customers or consumers of programs and services often implemented through top down approaches.

  • Person centered ways to build community: through PATHS and MAPS planning  with the aim to restore old connections and create new allies adding meaning and purpose to life.

  • Participatory drama to support people in finding their voice and invent ways to humanise humanity. I've learned to work with participatory drama at: Formaat, Workplace for Participatory Drama, click here for their website!

 

what can Evi bring?

  • an appreciative outlook on the community and its abundant resources and possibilities, what's strong instead of what's wrong?

  • JOY, when people (re)discover their contributions and feel seen heard and valued!

  • Story harvesting & mapping:explore and awake the hidden storytellers within communities and find (hidden) assets.

  • SOUL and enthusiasm to work hard and work together on stronger and more WELCOMING communities!
