Peer learning lies at the core of the Event Strategies Network. Each session provides a space to share experiences, approaches, and inspiration drawn from our collective work designing and convening events for social change. We aim to enhance our skills to maximise the value of convening: bringing together diverse perspectives and creating a space that minimises division and fosters solidarity.
Our upcoming gathering is for anyone navigating the complexities of multi-stakeholder convenings—whether you’re balancing priorities between civil society, government, the private sector, or grassroots movements. We’ll open a practical discussion on the real-world challenges of managing competing interests and create a space to share tools, strategies, and lived experiences for fostering inclusive, impactful convenings.
What we’ll explore together:
- The dynamics of hosting events across different sectors and perspectives.
- Approaches to building trust and fostering inclusion from the earliest planning stages.
- Practical lessons on balancing power, managing friction, and making space for diverse voices.
- Members’ experiences and questions about cultivating constructive dialogue.
If you design, manage, or produce events—or are simply curious to learn from and with peers facing similar questions—this community session is for you. Bring your stories and questions; leave with new connections and collective wisdom.
