Riripeti's Brisbane/Sydney Workshops

Workshop presented by Riripeti Reedy, Maitai Group NZ Ltd.

Wednesday Dec 16, Brisbane (cancelled) & Thursday Dec 17, Sydney

This interactive workshop, draws on Maori indigenous experiences and insights to explore, challenge and offer up ways forward for participants to take the actions of across-cultures research into their own actions of learning. This can sometimes be an uncomfortable place.

This 90-minute workshop for action researchers is designed to give some insights into the thinking and understandings of ‘others’, how to work with those understandings, and recognise their authority in your work.

ALARA Member Survey- Capacity Building

As identified in our business plan, which progresses our members’ vision for ALARA, we are progressing the capacity building strategy this year.

A Special Interest Group has been established with members: Dianne Allen, Bob Dick, Elyssebeth Leigh, Vicki Vaartjes and Susan Goff. The group has agreed to a small pilot using Susan’s company, to see how a capacity building process would work. In mind is that ALARA members with the ability to deliver capacity building events will have the option to use the public, ALARA Events Website to market and handle registrations for their events. This website allows our Administrator, Donna, to do the financial management and accounting for each event for the member, and to draw from the event’s intake a negotiated percentage for ALARA and for Administration fees. The logistics are handled by the presenter who can market their event through the ALARA networks.
