Are you hearing a lot about co-production where you work or volunteer but wondering what it really is? Would you like to spend a little bit of time having a real-life, practical experience which will give you some clear principles that you can take away and use towards co-production?

If so, why not join CoLab on Monday 27 October at a free CoLab Exchange session on creativity and design thinking? The first session is from 1.30-4.00pm and repeating it on the same day 5.30-.8.00pm.  Wondering what you’ll get out of it? The aim of the sessions is that you will:

• Develop an awareness of the ways in which you bring your own unique creative style and creative level to the problems and challenges you face in your work.
• Become equipped to remove some of the barriers to effective collaboration you might be facing through an understanding of people’s creative styles and creative levels.
• Enjoy a design thinking crash course in which you will use and experience some of the basic principles of design thinking, working through steps to Empathise, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test solutions to a challenge you will be set.
• Leave with a deeper sense and understanding of what co-production involves.

Register here for either session.
