Description

In this episode, Teia and Lauren unpack knowledge, whose knowledge is often prioritised in the non-profit sector, why that is the case and what can we do to decentre ourselves and refocus on whose knowledge really counts. Warning - solutions are scarce, musings are many!Sources:1.

Teia and Lauren have worked in the humanitarian, development, and peacebuilding fields for...long enough. Now they’re travelling around in a campervan, on a journey to understand what organisational transformation does, and could, look like. Join them each week as they discuss their non-profit experience and invite guests from across different sectors to pull back the curtain on how organisations function (or not) and understand what can be done on an organisational and individual level to address complex social issues. Are you ready? Are you sure? It might sting. Get Premium Content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
