Understanding diversity and inclusion in Calderdale
Aug 2020 - Sept 2021
This season of dialogues concludes our initial investigation into local inclusion and diversity to build 'awareness' of our subject. Beth has drawn on friends, who are also local professionals, working at the heart of the grassroots in Calderdale to look more honestly at aspects of community like food, growing, biodiversity, supporting vulnerable people, disability, engagement and youth. We begin the first stages of social mapping to tease out the problems, solutions and ideas that are collectively highlighted through the interviews.
