How to Facilitate Structured Engagement to Unleash Everyone

Event Date & Time

Event Description

Often in PowerPoint driven meetings, lessons, lectures and gatherings, there comes a point when eyes glaze over, heads turn down to phones/laptops, and disengagement starts to creep in. Have you ever experienced that, or been one of those attendees bored to tears by constant sitting and passive listening?

In this workshop we’ll explore the amazing facilitation world of Liberating Structures, “a collection of simple, inclusive and fun interaction templates designed to facilitate generative engagement”. You’ll engage hands-on facilitation activities designed to be easily replicated in your context whether you run big lectures, small seminars/tutorials, staff meetings, community events, and so on!

Prepare to move around, get out of your comfort zone and be fully present!   

Facilitators: 

• Barish Golland Integrated Renewal Program 
• Zsuzsi Fodor Engagement Strategist, Community Engagement
• Emily Van Halem  Masters in Education Student, UBC
• Oral Robinson Full-time Lecturer, Sociology, UBC
