"Thrive" - Social Enterprise Stories and Gathering for SEWF

In association with the Social Enterprise World Forum, SECNA is launching their first ever storytelling event to connect, celebrate and collectively dream about a shared vision for a future where all people, places and the planet thrive.

Co-hosted by Our Race, Racha’s Syrian Kitchen, Digital Storytellers, First Innovators, A Window in Time and many more - we will have a range of workshops to support you to shape and refine your stories, private booths and lounge areas for community conversations, cooking experiences and stories over supper, a Thrive wall to write and share ideas and an open mic in the evening, where we welcome any art forms:

  • Presentation

  • Slam poetry

  • Song

  • Visual Media

  • Movement/Drama

Led by a working group of Cultural and Indigenous Social Entrepreneurs - those in the creative and arts sector who use business to build platforms that disrupt belief systems, shift cultural norms or sustain, preserve aspects of culture valuable for future generations - we invite you to come along and tell us about a person, place or vision in your community, for example:

  • Your great, great, great-granddaughter making her way to school

  • A new migrant going to meet their local member of parliament

  • An emerging Indigenous Elder

How will their experience be different in a future where all people, places and the planet thrive?
