RANGAHAU
WORKSHOPS
We have workshop sessions running on both days of the symposium. On each day you can choose to attend several quick sessions in a row, or one longer deep-dive workshop.
Quick Workshops
Attend several quick sessions in a row
The quick workshops will provide you with introductions to frameworks, concepts, and practical tools which you can take back and apply in your own world.
Deep Dive Workshops
Sink into longer sessions for in-depth learning
The deep-dive workshops will explore ideas in greater depth – allowing time for learning by doing, self-reflection, and discussion.
Discover what these streams have to offer below….
