This is one of the first international multidisciplinary conferences to be held in the UK with a focus on co-production and creative methods that welcomes academics and community partners into a shared space. Co-production has become more mainstream recently within a number of disciplines and contexts across the social sciences and arts and humanities. This conference will address methods and ideas in the broad area of co-production with a focus on making change happen. Our interest is on sharing ideas, inspiration and experiences around co-production with children and young people. The conference will explore participatory and creative methods. We welcome contributions in a variety of formats, including but not limited to; presentations, workshops, exhibitions, films, posters, experiential events or happenings across the following themes:
- Creative methods and co-production – ways of knowing, doing, learning together
- Young people as leaders in co-produced projects – learning from experience
- Academics and communities co-researching – practice and theory
- Transforming communities through co-produced projects
- Interdisciplinary work on co-produced projects.
