Description

Ever feel like you're listening to language soup (or is it language salad)? What exactly did you mean when you said we needed to decolonise our strategic frameworks through an intersectional and anti-racist lens with consideration for MARP and LNOB? #Guilty! Lauren and Teia tackle language, acronyms, jargon and initialisms in the non-profit sector and offer some insights into what you can do if you want to transform your language to be more inclusive. Our call to action: Bring awareness to how language you use can be interpreted differently by others, stop and ask "What does this word mean to you"?Resources:Letters of Exclusion, January 2021Do you Speak Non-Profit?

Teia and Lauren have worked in the humanitarian, development, and peacebuilding fields for...long enough. Now they’re travelling around in a campervan, on a journey to understand what organisational transformation does, and could, look like. Join them each week as they discuss their non-profit experience and invite guests from across different sectors to pull back the curtain on how organisations function (or not) and understand what can be done on an organisational and individual level to address complex social issues. Are you ready? Are you sure? It might sting. Get Premium Content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
