Speaker
Jazlyn Pinckney
My work centres on implementing + evaluating thoughtful inclusion strategies to deliver impactful cultural and institutional change.This Lunchtime Talk will be broadcast live on Watershed's YouTube channel.
Jazlyn Pinckney was the Inclusion Producer for The South West Creative Technology Network, where she contributed to developing Data Led Inclusion practices. That approach has been incredibly useful to develop organisational wide structure but can sometime leave a gap between the outcome-driven focus of inclusion and the soft, messy, human side of ego, conflict, ownership and joy.
As Inclusion practices takes the lead from Social Justice movements, what approaches can help make sense of the more human side of this work?
Jazlyn Pinckney reflects back on the people, strategies and ideas that have helped her to re-imagine in that grey space. This talk will give an overview on how Adrienne Maree Brown’s Emergent Strategies, and Marshall Rosenburg’s Non-Violent Communications and Favianna Rodreguiez’s Pleasure Activism has inspired Jazlyn to grow her artistry within inclusion.
Working together with Natalie Nzeyimana, Tony Bhajam, Layla Barron and others, Jazlyn considers how we recognise our full selves without restricting our collaborative potential through fear, ego or shame. And finally, to consider how do we process, learn, grow and heal in moments of real tension cause by the struggle to rebalance inequity?
Join us on Fri 28th May, 13:00-14:00 for the talk and to take part in the discussion afterwards.
