Effective Consultation in the Arts
This practical, one-day course explores how to design and run effective consultations that generate valuable insights and support inclusive, transparent decision-making in creative, cultural and heritage contexts.
Through interactive exercises, participants will learn how to structure a consultation process from planning to delivery, including how to design safe and welcoming environments, ask the right questions, manage barriers, and share findings with clarity and integrity.
