Meta-Meta
Meta-Meta is a retreat for practitioners in community cultural development, intercultural and socially engaged practice. The inaugural Meta-Meta event was held in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, in 2012.
Mid-career professionals working across Australia, Indonesia and South-East Asia met with other intercultural innovators who work across faiths, genders, nationalities, economies, cultures of origin, generations and abilities.
Practitioners working on creative-led social change face common issues. The event creates space for:
-
Critical dialogues with documented outcomes.
-
Open Space exploration of practice-based issues including participant-led workshops.
-
Conversations around professional sustainability, reflection and collaboration.
-
Safe space to meet with peers and colleagues creating time in your year to get into rich, productive discussions that expand your work.
-
Focus on peer learning for mid-career practitioners, as there isn’t currently a professional development or exchange opportunity for practitioners at this level.
