Including the voice of lived experience in policy making

The Greater Manchester VCFSE Leadership Group are excited to invite you to a workshop to hear more about including the voice of lived experience in your work.

This 2-hour workshop for public sector colleagues in Greater Manchester will cover key principles to including the voice of lived experience in your work. It's an opportunity to find out more about:

• Sharing power and decision making
• Valuing lived and learned experience equally
• Providing inclusive and respectful remuneration
• Involving people early and continuously
• Practical support and the importance of accessibility

The workshop will offer a mix of interactive discussions, individual reflection, group exercises, and opportunities to share best practice and ask questions.

It is designed around the Greater Manchester Equality Alliance (GM=EqAl) resource on hearing the voice of lived experience in policy making which summarises the key principles alongside practical guidance.
