Soon on my way to Guinea Bissau to facilitate a two weeks workshop!



I am glad to announce that my participation in the Workshop In Situ Studio Guinea Bissau has been confirmed! I will be having the different roles of course leader, facilitator and guide on participatory methods as well as documentation manager.
 

Challenging Practice, Stage B ‘Reflecting in Action’



Challenging Practice course is divided into four stages: a theoretical online introduction, a two-day seminar, a practical workshop or internship (also called Stage B 'Reflecting in Action'), and finally a last stage of deeper theoretical reflection.


In Situ Studio in Guinea Bissau is a Stage B ‘Reflecting in Action’ workshop organised by ASF Sweden in partnership with UNICEF, OGD and Lusofona University.




In Situ Studio Guinea Bissau, 3-16 Jan 2019


In Situ Studio in Guinea Bissau will be held from 3rd to 16th of January in Guinea Bissau and offer participants a live immersion into critical and participatory modes of built environment practice.


The participants to the workshop will gain hands-on experience of processes of urban change and community-led initiatives. Through the work of ASF Sweden's local partners (UNICEF, OGD and Lusofona University) they will gain a better understanding of the urban complexities in the country. The specific focus lies on inclusive water and sanitation facilities in schools as well as child-centred education and development of safe, healthy and sustainable environments.


We will have practical field work including analysis of already implemented projects as well as new projects, together with communities in different areas and cities. The workshop will also include theoretical sessions and thematic focus areas such as gender, financial mechanisms, local materials and techniques.


The outcome of the collaborative work conducted during the workshop will feed into ongoing projects of UNICEF and their local collaboration partners.

I look forward to work together with the local organisations and guide the 10 international participants that enrolled to the workshop. We will address, among other challenges, the difficulties faced by girls and young women at school.
Wish me luck :)
