===== Activity catalogue =====

This page collects (possible) activities of the hosting community of practice.

See also: [[activity mapping]]

==== Types of activities ====

Possible directions:
  * Participatory learning, cross-sectorial experiments and creative processes (multistakeholder workshops)
  * Multisensory experiences (rituals, celebrations, immersive and participatory artworks)
  * Life-changing courses and programmes (personal and professional)
  * Retreats (in nature, unique landscapes, as well as cities)

Who initiates the activities? 
    * 'clients': other individuals, groups, organisations, systems invite us to propose/design and host activities for them 
    * the community: we design activities as a group and offer different 'packages' (joint project portfolio, see below)
    * individual members: each of us can bring our own projects to be supported by the group (either through consultation/advice or collaboration on each other's projects - see the [[about#three_approaches|"chest of drawers" or "process design lab"]] )

=== Existing activities ===


**__Internal__**

-> Activities we have done so far for the sake of the community itself
  * Hosting community [[gatherings]]: these are periodic gatherings, aimed at (our own) community development, process design, peer-learning and other exchanges
  * Peer-learning, mentoring, coaching (each other)

**__External__** 

-> Activities we developed together in the past (with two or more hosting members). Some of these might be 'repackaged' as hosting-community offers for different target groups and situations...
