Storytelling for Co-production event - Feel like you were there!

[Sarah Lyall]

Last week the London Co-production Practitioners Network met for a session hosted by Latimer Creative Media. Together we developed our personal Co-production Stories and our Story of Self. We experimented with social media, tweeted #MyCoProStory and made short film clips.

We learned that...

• Stories help communicate values to people by engaging their emotions
• Stories can motivate others to act with us - in ways that only providing a laundry list of actions or strategies cannot
• Social media can be used to communicate stories in bite size chunks.
  

The Storify for the event is so good, you almost feel like you are there >>>> https://storify.com/mycoprostory/mycoprostory

Keep storytelling! After all...

What is utterly unique about each of is not a combination of the categories (race, gender, class, profession, and marital status) that include us, but rather, our journey, our way through life, our personal text from which each of us can teach.
