KazzumCon 26

A one-day in person conference exploring ethical, non-extractive evaluation frameworks and measuring impact. Join us to develop ways to communicate a trauma-informed approach to working with young people in a way that doesn’t re-traumatise and supports them to have an influence and agency on how their stories are told and how they are seen, heard and valued. The day will include keynote conversations, panel discussions, workshops activities and opportunities for peer learning and networking. Together, we will discuss: • What is evaluation? Why is it necessary? What are key features of evaluation? • What do trauma-informed evaluation practices look like? • What impact might arts-based methodologies make on evaluative practices? • What does decolonising evaluation look like? How might organisations embed culturally aware, ethical approaches to evaluative activities? • How do organisations measure impact, and for what purpose? • How do we build strength in shared learning and resources? Who is this event for? This event is aimed at community leaders, fundraisers and freelance practitioners Accessibility We are committed to making this event as accessible as possible. If you have any access requirements, please get in touch in advance and we will do our best to support you. With this conference Kazzum Arts are launching a Trauma-informed Creative Health Network to support trauma-informed practice. The aims of this network are to build capacity and partnership working, enhance training, share knowledge and best practice in trauma-informed working and create advocacy resources to support the communications of trauma-informed practice.
