OCT 2, 2019 8:24 PM We often co-create communication agreements from scratch with the groups we collaborate with as part of the Calling Up practice.
In this first community agreement Circle-Up, we’ll start to develop collective language through peer-based knowledge exchange, listening, and learning. This will be an active work session to share and collect examples of community and collaboration agreements from the NET membership.
Through practical exercises and insightful prompts, you can navigate disagreements with empathy and constructive communication. By preparing for positive disagreements, you’ll not only resolve conflicts but also build stronger, more meaningful connections. Get ready to embark on a journey that turns conflict into a stepping stone toward deeper relationships.
Calling Up Justice believes that agreements should be specific to the space and co-created with that ensemble. We share different guidelines we use to help you build yours. These are from One Free Community’s Discord. It covers OFA Core Values, Moderation Tools, Quick Bank Issues, Watch List Items, Disagreement/Interpersonal Conflicts, One-Sided Issues, General Moderator Considerations , Dog Whistles & Hate Symbols, Trigger Warnings, and Consent Documents.
As the facilitator, participants will look to you to create and hold a space that is conducive to conversation. Your main role is to help participants feel comfortable and motivated to participate.
