This first Focus Meeting has been built around 3 workshops in which participants will go through different key learning processes to develop fairer practices for their own contexts.
This introduction will set the goals of our workshop and hopefully shift our reflection towards action, engaging us in a meaningful and nuanced transformation of our ways of working.

Speakers

Ingrid Vranken, Independent Dramaturg, Curator and Artist, Belgium

Ása Richardsdóttir, IETM, Belgium

Many of us have been confronted with professional situations which are unfair. And most of us have already undertaken actions to improve and push towards fairer conditions in our local contexts. 

During our first workshop, we will split up in working groups to share and map our most urgent issues regarding fair practices and discuss good practices we have observed or tried out. 

This session has been conceived by Ingrid Vranken, Independent Dramaturg, Curator and Artist based in Brussels and will be led by a group of moderators.

It is difficult to speak about fairness in the arts without speaking of precariousness, pressures, solidarity and the sustainability of our practices. 

We don’t always have the freedom to do the right thing but out of necessity, sometimes, we are able to reshuffle some pieces of the puzzle around to place our values at the centre of our working models.

We have invited the Brussels based artist and activist Anna Rispoli to share her thoughts on solidarity and to open our afternoon with an inspiring example.

Anna Rispoli, Artist, Belgium

Taking a step back from our own organisations and practices, this second workshop will be an opportunity for us to take a deep dive into specific case studies of fair practices, taken from different contexts. 

In our working groups we will look into these fair practice examples, analyse and discuss them and identify our learnings.

This session has been conceived by Ingrid Vranken, Independent Dramaturg, Curator and Artist based in Brussels and will be led by a group of moderators.

Let’s take a moment to take stock of what we have learnt during our 2 first workshop sessions. Remember that we are publishing a report of these two days so this is your chance to review and put forward any priorities, ideas or discrepancies to be highlighted.

During our last session, all the inspiration we could gather from our colleagues will find its culmination point. Either individually or with co-workers, we will create prototypes for how our organisation/ practice could look like when implementing a fair practice principle or example. 

These prototypes will be shared in small feedback groups, where we will help each other in to identify the first steps we can take towards these futures.

This session has been conceived by Ingrid Vranken, Independent Dramaturg, Curator and Artist based in Brussels and will be led by a group of moderators.

Another important moment to check in with all the groups and highlight important notions of the last two days. This time, we are inviting the people who have carried us through this two day reflection to react and share some insights about what they have heard in their respective groups. 

There will also be time for participants' reactions and of course, we will also take a moment to say goodbye and share the latest details about IETM’s future activities.
