GMCVO and partners are looking for short contributions for a day-long ‘Learning from Failure’ event on 23 June 2022 in Manchester. GMCVO have received funding from Voluntary Sector Studies Network to create a space for people working in, with and funding the VCSE sector to talk about:
When things do not go as planned- How we can learn from things going wrong
- The value of looking at failure in research and evaluation
The event will start with a Story Jam at 10am, which GMCVO are looking for people from the VCSE sector in Greater Manchester to air their experiences of failure and the valuable lessons learned from this.
There’s pressure in the third sector to always be ‘doing good’ and presenting ourselves in the best way – whether that be within our own organisation, networks or with those who fund our work. But sometimes the most valuable lessons are learned when things don’t quite go as planned.
This Story Jam will be a supportive space to share mistakes and mishaps - big or small - and delve into the learning that can be taken from them.
