THE BRAVE SPACE: when we dare with care

How does one facilitate a brave space? One does not create such space with ice-breakers and energizers, but a curated process that builds multifaceted connections between all.

It’s a space that the facilitators and the participants shape together. An energetic field where we all lean into discomfort and dare with care.

We can humanize the ways we organize

Jos de Blok is the founder and leader of Buurtzorg, a pioneering health care organization, with a nurse-led self-organized model that provides holistic and patient-centered care. Buurtzorg is one of the revolutionary organizations that are organized from the so-called “teal” paradigm, operating as living organisms where self-management replaces rigid hierarchies and purpose-driven leadership moves them towards realizing their full potential.

Lead Facilitator at a digital co-creation conference

The Co-Creation Conference of 2021, “Engaging in Knowledge Translation Together” was organised for the second time by Share-Net International and in 2021 was hosted by Share-Net Bangladesh. The conference took place from 25th to 28th of January and the 3rd of February 2021 on a digital platform giving over 75 people from all around the world the opportunity to join.

This innovative, dynamic event was a working conference where participants developed concrete and evidence-informed knowledge products that used for influencing policy and practice at the national and global level.

As a lead facilitator of the conference I got the chance to contribute towards the design the co-creation methodology using Miro and train group facilitators to guide participants through the collaborative process. The conference was successful, resulting in 8 knowledge products being funded by the Share-Net Small Grants Initiative.
