cultural institutions = civil society?• One element in a much bigger process• Holding a mirror up to ourselves and our world
= awareness, empathy, pride, responsibility, capability
• “A tool for self-expression, self-recognition” • “Where people find meaning and value”• Agent of community well-being• Shared, cohesive space–Generational–Participative–Contemplative

designing for civil society outcomes• Cultural connection, recognition of place, context• Shared ownership of the thinking, process, voice• Inclusive, accessible, regular• Prompting ideas, questions, dialogue• “Safe” space for learning, discussion and debate• Places to hang out - social• Opportunities to contribute• Making people part of the subject story• Good for young people (not just children)
