You’ll gain hands-on experience developing a co-design strategy tailored to your specific context, with insights on how to choose what's appropriate for your organisation to facilitate effective, safe and inclusive engagement with internal buy-in. This 4-hour interactive session will empower you with the knowledge and tools to drive successful co-design projects.
