Re: You're Invited - Live Online Event - Yarning Space, 27th May (Have your say!)

Hello,

 

Do you identify as Aboriginal and, or Torres Strait Islander? Join us for a Yarn

 

SANE is currently in the process of co-designing this “Yarning Space’ sub-forum, with a prototype now being specifically designed and trialled with and for people who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander. This sub-forum aims to be a safe online space dedicated to healing, introducing the Social and Emotional Wellbeing Framework as a foundation for content and discussions, where people can connect, yarn, and support each other in a culturally safe and responsive space. 

 

We would like to invite you to a special live event to provide us with some feedback about the yarning space and start the process of co-designing the future look and feel of the space as it's important that we know what’s important to you. The event will be a live online group discussion led by SANE.  Participants that join the event and contribute will be compensated for their time.

 

When: Monday 27th May 7:00pm to 8:30pm AEST

 

How to join and participate?

1. Email team@saneforums.org and request
to join the Yarning Space.
2. SANE will then reply via email with a link to invite you

3. Simply login at 7:00pm and join the live conversation by replying to some questions.

 

Questions will be posted during this time, so you and others can respond and provide feedback.

 

We would love to get some feedback from you about:

  • How easy it is to sign up
  • How easy it is to find the space after you have signed up
  • How easy is it to post
  • Whether we keep the space invitation only but make it visible on the SANE Forums page.
  • What does SEWB mean to you and how can we make the space culturally safe, responsive to your needs, and unique compared to the other Forums?
  • What content would you like to see
  • What design would you like to see
  • Other suggestions/feedback

 

What is co-design?

“Co-design” refers to a participatory approach to designing solutions, in which community members are treated as equal collaborators in the design process.
