OVERALL AGENDA:

DAY 1 - April 6: Learning with and from each other

Bring your stories, questions, techniques, challenges as we make sense of how we have used CoPs in international development cooperation. Where are they fit for purpose? Where have they failed? Why and how do we know?

  • Purpose: Cases and Stories shared through Shift and Share 1
  • Practice: Harvest of patterns, insights and challenges with Nine Whys 2 and Wicked Questions 3
  • Lunch: On your own - sample the great local Latino food at area restaurants
  • Practice: Dive deeper with Open Space 4
  • Purpose: What patterns can best support our work going forward? Summary and identification of ideas, big, bold, small, and immediate

DAY 2 - April 7:  Learning to make a difference: a framework

Bev and Etienne Wenger-Trayner have developed a “value-creation framework” that focuses on how social learning makes a difference in the world via its effect on practice. The framework helps structure convincing accounts of the value of social learning by framing learning in terms of different cycles of value creation and loops between them. It integrates quantitative and qualitative data and can be used by professional evaluators as well as participants (see http://wenger-trayner.com/resources/publications/evaluation-framework/).

In this mini-workshop, Bev and Etienne will introduce the framework and show up how to apply it in our work.
