UPCOMING EVENTS
Connect and Reflect
Join our next ‘Connect and Reflect: Experimentation and Developing New Projects’ session on Wednesday 7 February.
For our ‘Connect and Reflect’ sessions we provide suggested questions to start the conversation and then it’s over to you to connect, collaborate and problem solve with your peers.
Each session concentrates on a particular topic and February's focus is on your experiences of developing new projects and experimenting with new ideas.
These monthly sessions are the perfect opportunity to digitally connect with your place-based colleagues, discuss a range of topics and take away new approaches to your work.
CATCH UP
Supporting Wellbeing
In November 2023, Dr Tim Anstiss delivered practical sessions which explored how best to support your own and your team’s mental health and wellbeing.
Dr Anstiss has provided a selection of resources to help improve your own resilience and emotional wellbeing at work, as well as practical advice that you can share and use with your colleagues.
‘How to’ series
At the end of 2023, we explored the topic of data and evaluation with our ‘How to’ sessions with James Akers and Jack Roscoe from the Digital Culture Network.
The topics were:
- How I Learned to Love my Data
- How to Collect High Quality Surveys
- How to Collect Data in a Public Space
These sessions were aimed at anyone who was new to data and evaluation or who would like to develop their skills further.
