PiP Session 2: Valuing Local Knowledge and Context

How do we recognise, respect and genuinely value local knowledge in place‑based work?

Building on feedback from Session 1, this PiP session will explore what valuing local knowledge and context looks like in practice. We’ll share and compare different place‑based approaches, focusing on how community expertise is being centred to shape decisions and solutions.

Join the conversation to connect with others and hear practical lessons on how to support communities to lead with their knowledge.

Registrations are open now.
