1 00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:01,510 Morning, everyone, 2 00:00:01,510 --> 00:00:03,669 and uh welcome to Dublin's North 3 00:00:03,670 --> 00:00:06,070 East Inner City and our project 4 00:00:06,071 --> 00:00:07,509 as a community led 5 00:00:07,511 --> 00:00:10,150 restorative city in practice. 6 00:00:10,150 --> 00:00:14,070 So my story today is about a city 7 00:00:14,070 --> 00:00:15,800 that hasn't necessarily or uh 8 00:00:16,510 --> 00:00:18,019 Ballant, as you described, 9 00:00:18,021 --> 00:00:20,339 a district within a city that 10 00:00:20,341 --> 00:00:22,260 hasn't just decided to call 11 00:00:22,261 --> 00:00:24,260 itself a restorative one, 12 00:00:24,261 --> 00:00:26,899 but it's a work in progress 13 00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:27,780 over over over over over 14 00:00:27,781 --> 00:00:28,181 over over over over over 15 00:00:28,182 --> 00:00:30,260 over10 years now at this stage. 16 00:00:30,261 --> 00:00:33,539 So my role is within our local 17 00:00:33,540 --> 00:00:36,100 university, and we have a community 18 00:00:36,100 --> 00:00:38,579 facing faculty within that university 19 00:00:38,580 --> 00:00:40,100 that, as Ballant mentioned, 20 00:00:40,100 --> 00:00:41,859 works with early years services and 21 00:00:41,860 --> 00:00:42,979 after schools, 22 00:00:42,980 --> 00:00:45,350 primary and post primary schools. 23 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,030 Youth services, so mainstream youth 24 00:00:48,030 --> 00:00:49,390 services and what we would call 25 00:00:49,390 --> 00:00:51,630 Garda youth diversion services. 26 00:00:51,631 --> 00:00:53,469 So they would be services that work 27 00:00:53,470 --> 00:00:56,030 with probation on the court system. 28 00:00:56,030 --> 00:00:57,789 And we also work with a range of 29 00:00:57,790 --> 00:01:01,149 community organizations from um 30 00:01:01,150 --> 00:01:03,869 homelessness to addiction to 31 00:01:03,870 --> 00:01:06,989 housing to adult education 32 00:01:06,990 --> 00:01:10,590 to sports to dance to music to art. 33 00:01:10,591 --> 00:01:12,670 So anyone who lives, works, 34 00:01:12,671 --> 00:01:14,799 and breathes in Doland's North. 35 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,430 East inner city, um, 36 00:01:16,431 --> 00:01:18,430 we're hoping has been exposed to 37 00:01:18,431 --> 00:01:20,750 restorative practices over the last 38 00:01:20,751 --> 00:01:21,920 ten or so years. 39 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,439 So I suppose our aim in 40 00:01:25,441 --> 00:01:27,200 creating that restorative 41 00:01:27,201 --> 00:01:28,560 community in the North Inner 42 00:01:28,561 --> 00:01:31,840 City is about how people live in 43 00:01:31,841 --> 00:01:34,560 relationships together every day. 44 00:01:34,561 --> 00:01:37,920 And while it recognizes that conflict, 45 00:01:37,921 --> 00:01:40,159 harm, misunderstanding happens, 46 00:01:40,161 --> 00:01:40,480 whether 47 00:01:40,481 --> 00:01:41,760 they be within families, 48 00:01:41,761 --> 00:01:43,519 within schools, within services, 49 00:01:43,521 --> 00:01:44,719 within communities, 50 00:01:44,721 --> 00:01:46,400 that ultimately relationships 51 00:01:46,401 --> 00:01:48,560 are our key protective factor. 52 00:01:48,561 --> 00:01:52,370 So our um perspective and our lens. 53 00:01:52,540 --> 00:01:53,730 For looking at restorative 54 00:01:53,731 --> 00:01:55,489 practices in the North East inner 55 00:01:55,490 --> 00:01:58,450 city is one of a preventative 56 00:01:58,451 --> 00:02:00,930 early intervention piece of work. 57 00:02:00,931 --> 00:02:02,769 So it's very much looking at 58 00:02:02,771 --> 00:02:04,049 the language we use, 59 00:02:04,051 --> 00:02:06,209 the processes we use in our day to day 60 00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:07,250 interactions. 61 00:02:07,251 --> 00:02:10,210 So the focus of our work and my work, 62 00:02:10,211 --> 00:02:13,169 as Ballant mentioned, is I'm the 63 00:02:13,170 --> 00:02:16,129 the coordinator for all of this, 64 00:02:16,131 --> 00:02:17,009 all of this brilliant 65 00:02:17,010 --> 00:02:17,810 work that happens. 66 00:02:17,811 --> 00:02:19,250 And it doesn't happen without 67 00:02:19,251 --> 00:02:20,530 community members and 68 00:02:20,531 --> 00:02:21,780 community professionals. 69 00:02:22,099 --> 00:02:23,689 But I'm lucky in that I get to 70 00:02:23,691 --> 00:02:25,849 coordinate all of this fab work. 71 00:02:25,850 --> 00:02:27,610 So our work focuses on helping 72 00:02:27,611 --> 00:02:29,689 people to build strong relationships 73 00:02:29,691 --> 00:02:31,289 before things go wrong. 74 00:02:31,290 --> 00:02:34,969 So very much within the front 75 00:02:34,971 --> 00:02:36,889 facing services that support 76 00:02:36,890 --> 00:02:38,169 children, young people, 77 00:02:38,170 --> 00:02:40,169 adults, and families. 78 00:02:40,170 --> 00:02:42,169 Our work also supports them 79 00:02:42,170 --> 00:02:44,090 communities and organizations to 80 00:02:44,091 --> 00:02:46,090 address harm as early and as 81 00:02:46,091 --> 00:02:48,250 safely as possible, so that it 82 00:02:48,251 --> 00:02:50,460 doesn't necessarily have to go to 83 00:02:51,210 --> 00:02:53,120 Um, on Gardashiakona, which would 84 00:02:53,121 --> 00:02:54,479 be our police service, 85 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,599 or it doesn't have to 86 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,199 go to a space where it 87 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,800 sits within the justice system. 88 00:02:58,801 --> 00:03:01,280 Our aim is to equip people and 89 00:03:01,281 --> 00:03:02,879 communities that they have the 90 00:03:02,881 --> 00:03:04,400 knowledge, the skills, and the 91 00:03:04,401 --> 00:03:06,080 processes within restorative 92 00:03:06,081 --> 00:03:07,520 practice that were able to 93 00:03:07,521 --> 00:03:08,930 address that harm early on. 94 00:03:09,789 --> 00:03:12,110 And also it's about creating spaces 95 00:03:12,111 --> 00:03:13,629 where those different voices, 96 00:03:13,631 --> 00:03:15,469 different lived experiences can be 97 00:03:15,471 --> 00:03:18,189 heard again in a safe and creative 98 00:03:18,191 --> 00:03:20,830 and healthy way across the community. 99 00:03:20,831 --> 00:03:22,509 So what we found over the 100 00:03:22,510 --> 00:03:24,110 past decade is that this 101 00:03:24,111 --> 00:03:26,830 original idea that started in 102 00:03:26,831 --> 00:03:30,430 about2013, and it was an idea, 103 00:03:30,431 --> 00:03:32,669 and it was an idea from a number 104 00:03:32,670 --> 00:03:35,069 of community stakeholders that 105 00:03:35,070 --> 00:03:38,270 they wanted something within the 106 00:03:38,271 --> 00:03:39,270 Dublin's North. 107 00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:40,810 inner city that that brought 108 00:03:40,811 --> 00:03:42,569 people together rather than 109 00:03:42,570 --> 00:03:44,650 separated us and drove us 110 00:03:44,651 --> 00:03:45,449 apart. 111 00:03:45,450 --> 00:03:48,729 The original idea was um that restart 112 00:03:48,730 --> 00:03:51,449 of practice was purely a tool for 113 00:03:51,450 --> 00:03:52,889 conflict resolution. 114 00:03:52,890 --> 00:03:55,050 So what we found over the last 115 00:03:55,051 --> 00:03:57,210 twelve years now at this stage 116 00:03:57,211 --> 00:03:58,729 is that it took quite a long 117 00:03:58,730 --> 00:04:01,050 time to to change that mindset 118 00:04:01,051 --> 00:04:03,050 from something that was 119 00:04:03,051 --> 00:04:04,650 something needs to go wrong 120 00:04:04,651 --> 00:04:06,090 to use these processes, 121 00:04:06,091 --> 00:04:07,900 to use this language, um to 122 00:04:08,509 --> 00:04:09,860 Live day to day using 123 00:04:09,861 --> 00:04:11,539 restorative processes. 124 00:04:11,540 --> 00:04:13,620 So that restorative practice is 125 00:04:13,621 --> 00:04:15,620 now seen as a relationship building 126 00:04:15,621 --> 00:04:17,459 tool rather than a conflict 127 00:04:17,459 --> 00:04:18,500 resolution tool. 128 00:04:18,500 --> 00:04:19,750 But that did take time. 129 00:04:20,850 --> 00:04:22,689 Um, so to give you a little bit 130 00:04:22,690 --> 00:04:26,610 of a geographical um look at 131 00:04:26,610 --> 00:04:28,129 what this particular area 132 00:04:28,130 --> 00:04:29,649 of Dublin looks like. 133 00:04:29,650 --> 00:04:31,810 It's the area shaded with the the 134 00:04:31,810 --> 00:04:35,649 blue, um, the blue outline, and it's 135 00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:37,889 in the on the north side of Dublin. 136 00:04:37,890 --> 00:04:39,569 So Dublin is the capital of Ireland, 137 00:04:39,570 --> 00:04:40,930 it sits on the east coast 138 00:04:40,930 --> 00:04:43,410 there on the Irish Sea, and 139 00:04:43,411 --> 00:04:45,009 Marion's map. 140 00:04:45,010 --> 00:04:46,129 That was us just over to 141 00:04:46,130 --> 00:04:47,889 the left of Marion's map. 142 00:04:47,890 --> 00:04:49,250 Um, and this particular 143 00:04:49,250 --> 00:04:50,250 area of Dublin's 144 00:04:50,439 --> 00:04:52,189 Inner city covers about two 145 00:04:52,190 --> 00:04:54,189 and a half kilometers squared. 146 00:04:54,190 --> 00:04:56,350 Um, and it sits in between uh 147 00:04:56,350 --> 00:04:59,230 Federico's and Marion's um population, 148 00:04:59,230 --> 00:05:00,110 and that there's 149 00:05:00,110 --> 00:05:02,110 about45,000 people live there, 150 00:05:02,110 --> 00:05:03,230 residing in about seven 151 00:05:03,230 --> 00:05:04,829 thousand households. 152 00:05:04,830 --> 00:05:07,870 Um, and the reason you're probably 153 00:05:07,870 --> 00:05:08,750 looking at the different 154 00:05:08,750 --> 00:05:10,829 colours within that map, and 155 00:05:10,830 --> 00:05:13,389 this is a map that comes from Pubble, 156 00:05:13,390 --> 00:05:14,589 which is one of our government 157 00:05:14,590 --> 00:05:16,350 departments, and it's 158 00:05:16,350 --> 00:05:19,149 described as a deprivation index. 159 00:05:19,150 --> 00:05:19,769 So 160 00:05:19,770 --> 00:05:23,519 We've had this mapping system over 161 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,439 it's probably nearly two decades now. 162 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,040 And what it does is it allows the 163 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,279 government to get a sense of what's 164 00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:31,199 happening in these areas within these 165 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:31,759 communities. 166 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,360 And you can see the different colours. 167 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,759 And on the legend there, the dark, 168 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,720 dark blue is the most affluent 169 00:05:38,721 --> 00:05:39,439 communities. 170 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,360 And you can see at the bottom 171 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,759 of the sketched out outline, 172 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,199 there's two particularly 173 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,959 dark blue areas. 174 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,480 One of those areas is actually 175 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,480 where our university. 176 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,279 is situated and it's situated 177 00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:54,480 within what we call is the IFSC. 178 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,519 So it's the Irish 179 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,120 Financial Services Centre. 180 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,600 And that's full of lots of 181 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,519 amazing corporate organizations 182 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:02,959 who we are really lucky to be 183 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,240 partnered with. 184 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,560 But um that's that's where we are 185 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,000 and that's where we're situated. 186 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,519 But you can see that surrounding 187 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,279 that immediate area are lots of 188 00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:13,839 really dark red and dark orange 189 00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:14,480 areas. 190 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,959 And those are areas of um 191 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,089 disadvantage, very disadvantaged 192 00:06:19,420 --> 00:06:20,209 And extremely 193 00:06:20,210 --> 00:06:22,529 disadvantaged communities. 194 00:06:22,530 --> 00:06:24,689 To the left and the right of us, 195 00:06:24,690 --> 00:06:25,569 then are a little bit 196 00:06:25,570 --> 00:06:27,009 of a mix of areas. 197 00:06:27,010 --> 00:06:29,810 Some of those areas are cultural 198 00:06:29,810 --> 00:06:32,769 areas, some of them are residential 199 00:06:32,770 --> 00:06:34,050 areas, and some of them are 200 00:06:34,050 --> 00:06:35,170 our business districts. 201 00:06:35,170 --> 00:06:37,089 So our big shopping areas. 202 00:06:37,090 --> 00:06:39,889 Our very famous O'Connell Street runs 203 00:06:39,890 --> 00:06:41,569 right through this map as well. 204 00:06:41,570 --> 00:06:43,569 So you can see from this map alone 205 00:06:43,570 --> 00:06:45,250 that this area of the Northeast 206 00:06:45,250 --> 00:06:47,170 inner city is really an area of 207 00:06:47,170 --> 00:06:48,740 both um. 208 00:06:49,389 --> 00:06:50,670 Significant strength, 209 00:06:50,670 --> 00:06:52,509 both economically, culturally, 210 00:06:52,510 --> 00:06:54,910 but also an area of complex 211 00:06:54,911 --> 00:06:56,910 interconnected pressures where 212 00:06:56,911 --> 00:06:58,750 residents, lots of which are 213 00:06:58,750 --> 00:07:00,750 intergenerational residents, 214 00:07:00,750 --> 00:07:03,550 really do um do have different 215 00:07:03,550 --> 00:07:04,829 challenges and different 216 00:07:04,830 --> 00:07:06,670 struggles within their day to 217 00:07:06,670 --> 00:07:07,230 day lives. 218 00:07:07,230 --> 00:07:08,990 So that's a little bit of a context 219 00:07:08,990 --> 00:07:11,230 of the the actual area that we that 220 00:07:11,230 --> 00:07:13,069 we work in and the people that we 221 00:07:13,070 --> 00:07:14,069 work with. 222 00:07:15,470 --> 00:07:17,870 So what I wanted to do is 223 00:07:17,870 --> 00:07:19,230 focus on those community 224 00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:20,990 strengths first and foremost. 225 00:07:20,990 --> 00:07:23,230 As I mentioned, it was the community 226 00:07:23,230 --> 00:07:26,110 itself and community leaders that 227 00:07:26,110 --> 00:07:28,829 in20, um, the middle of2013, 228 00:07:28,830 --> 00:07:30,110 so just before I started 229 00:07:30,110 --> 00:07:31,870 in the organization, had 230 00:07:31,870 --> 00:07:34,029 brought their local identity and local 231 00:07:34,030 --> 00:07:37,310 knowledge and their will and their 232 00:07:37,310 --> 00:07:39,069 passion to do something different 233 00:07:39,070 --> 00:07:40,509 in the North Inner City. 234 00:07:40,510 --> 00:07:42,350 So it was the local community 235 00:07:42,350 --> 00:07:44,319 who asked us as an organization. 236 00:07:44,819 --> 00:07:46,980 In the university to bring restorative 237 00:07:46,980 --> 00:07:48,899 practices to the North Inner City. 238 00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:51,139 So some of the strengths that exist 239 00:07:51,140 --> 00:07:53,620 then and absolutely exist now is 240 00:07:53,620 --> 00:07:54,899 that there really is a strong 241 00:07:54,900 --> 00:07:56,579 local identity and community 242 00:07:56,580 --> 00:07:58,100 knowledge within Dublin's 243 00:07:58,100 --> 00:07:59,540 North East Inner City. 244 00:07:59,540 --> 00:08:01,540 We have amazing community 245 00:08:01,540 --> 00:08:02,819 education and youth 246 00:08:02,820 --> 00:08:04,740 professionals and organizations. 247 00:08:04,740 --> 00:08:06,579 Lots and lots of them are 248 00:08:06,580 --> 00:08:10,259 in this community30,40,50 249 00:08:10,260 --> 00:08:11,300 years. 250 00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:13,910 We have some of the best schools. 251 00:08:14,290 --> 00:08:16,439 In Dublin and in Ireland, 252 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,199 and we work with roughly14 primary 253 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,160 schools and about eight to nine post 254 00:08:23,161 --> 00:08:25,720 primary schools, and roughly15 255 00:08:25,721 --> 00:08:27,720 to20 youth organizations. 256 00:08:27,721 --> 00:08:29,720 We have lots of existing networks and 257 00:08:29,721 --> 00:08:31,480 local leadership, and that's something 258 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,240 that over the years has really 259 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,840 stood to us because there 260 00:08:34,841 --> 00:08:36,600 are already systems of practice 261 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:37,960 and networks in place. 262 00:08:37,961 --> 00:08:39,720 So we weren't starting from a 263 00:08:39,721 --> 00:08:41,558 blank canvas and reaching out 264 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,158 to individual organizations. 265 00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:44,168 We are and continue. 266 00:08:44,279 --> 00:08:46,509 To be able to reach out to groups of 267 00:08:46,510 --> 00:08:49,710 people, to panels of stakeholders. 268 00:08:49,711 --> 00:08:51,309 And that absolutely supports 269 00:08:51,310 --> 00:08:53,870 what we do and how we do it. 270 00:08:53,870 --> 00:08:55,950 There has been significant development 271 00:08:55,951 --> 00:08:57,950 both in investment in society, 272 00:08:57,951 --> 00:08:59,789 commercial and residential projects 273 00:08:59,790 --> 00:09:00,590 over the years. 274 00:09:00,591 --> 00:09:01,789 That would have started in 275 00:09:01,790 --> 00:09:04,429 the mid to late1990s, um, 276 00:09:04,430 --> 00:09:06,429 with the with the Celtic Tiger, 277 00:09:06,430 --> 00:09:08,350 and that's where the Irish Financial 278 00:09:08,350 --> 00:09:10,269 Services Centre comes from. 279 00:09:10,270 --> 00:09:13,919 All of that investment um started um. 280 00:09:14,039 --> 00:09:16,350 Really to see lots of benefit in 281 00:09:16,350 --> 00:09:17,470 the early two thousands, 282 00:09:17,471 --> 00:09:19,950 but still forgot about little pockets 283 00:09:19,951 --> 00:09:21,470 around that community. 284 00:09:21,471 --> 00:09:23,549 And there absolutely is and continues 285 00:09:23,550 --> 00:09:25,309 to be a willingness to collaborate 286 00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:27,149 around children, families, 287 00:09:27,150 --> 00:09:28,750 community health, safety, 288 00:09:28,750 --> 00:09:29,750 and well being. 289 00:09:30,299 --> 00:09:31,490 But as you can imagine, 290 00:09:31,490 --> 00:09:33,649 there are some challenges for those 291 00:09:33,650 --> 00:09:35,970 of us, and Marion and Federica 292 00:09:35,971 --> 00:09:37,730 mentioned as well, those of us who 293 00:09:37,730 --> 00:09:40,289 live and work in city and inner 294 00:09:40,290 --> 00:09:41,809 city areas know that there are 295 00:09:41,810 --> 00:09:43,250 lots of community pressures as 296 00:09:43,250 --> 00:09:45,090 much as there are strengths. 297 00:09:45,091 --> 00:09:48,450 So we do have um quite 298 00:09:48,451 --> 00:09:50,529 uh quite a pronounced 299 00:09:50,530 --> 00:09:52,529 intergenerational disadvantage 300 00:09:52,530 --> 00:09:54,289 within within the community. 301 00:09:54,290 --> 00:09:55,970 Of that map that I showed you 302 00:09:55,971 --> 00:09:58,529 of the45,000, it's estimated 303 00:09:58,530 --> 00:10:00,179 that over16,000 of those. 304 00:10:00,289 --> 00:10:02,279 People do live in those highly 305 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,399 populated, disadvantaged areas. 306 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,840 There's lots and lots of 307 00:10:06,841 --> 00:10:09,080 educational inequality. 308 00:10:09,081 --> 00:10:11,320 When the the Department of 309 00:10:11,321 --> 00:10:12,840 Education and Higher Education 310 00:10:12,841 --> 00:10:14,360 work out on a year to year 311 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,960 basis, where our students go or 312 00:10:17,961 --> 00:10:19,799 where they come from to go into 313 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,399 university education, 314 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,320 we have a number of areas 315 00:10:23,321 --> 00:10:24,679 within Dublin's north east 316 00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:25,799 inner city that have the 317 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,120 lowest level of educational 318 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,289 university attainment. 319 00:10:29,470 --> 00:10:30,419 In Ireland. 320 00:10:30,420 --> 00:10:32,259 So where the average in Ireland 321 00:10:32,260 --> 00:10:34,019 might be seventy percent of 322 00:10:34,020 --> 00:10:36,259 our young people go into 323 00:10:36,260 --> 00:10:37,779 university and qualify with 324 00:10:37,780 --> 00:10:39,860 their full undergraduate degrees, 325 00:10:39,860 --> 00:10:41,139 that percentage within some 326 00:10:41,140 --> 00:10:42,179 of our communities in the 327 00:10:42,180 --> 00:10:45,299 Northeast inner city varies between15 328 00:10:45,300 --> 00:10:47,620 and20% in some of those areas. 329 00:10:47,620 --> 00:10:51,860 So educational inequality is huge. 330 00:10:51,860 --> 00:10:53,539 Another one of the pressures is 331 00:10:53,540 --> 00:10:55,539 in relation to drug related harm, 332 00:10:55,540 --> 00:10:57,539 drug related intimidation, and 333 00:10:57,540 --> 00:10:59,110 organized and gangland. 334 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:00,200 Crime. 335 00:11:00,201 --> 00:11:02,039 As I mentioned, this project 336 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,480 originally started on a much 337 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,120 smaller scale in about2013, very 338 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,799 early2014. 339 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,960 In2016, we had a number of instances, 340 00:11:11,961 --> 00:11:13,559 um, which which unfortunately 341 00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:14,759 happened outside schools, 342 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,840 outside early year services, 343 00:11:16,841 --> 00:11:19,399 that initiated a government, 344 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,480 so a government task force to 345 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,799 come in to our community to 346 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,399 support the growing level of 347 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:26,679 gangland crime. 348 00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:28,649 So there was a number of shootings. 349 00:11:28,940 --> 00:11:30,769 A number of murders in and around 350 00:11:30,770 --> 00:11:33,169 our community that that meant the 351 00:11:33,170 --> 00:11:34,929 the government themselves needed 352 00:11:34,930 --> 00:11:38,289 to act in a much more coordinated way. 353 00:11:38,290 --> 00:11:39,809 From that, as you can imagine, 354 00:11:39,810 --> 00:11:41,889 and the the intergenerational trauma 355 00:11:41,890 --> 00:11:43,649 that's experienced within these 356 00:11:43,650 --> 00:11:45,649 communities, there is community trauma 357 00:11:45,650 --> 00:11:47,809 and there is social fragmentation. 358 00:11:47,810 --> 00:11:49,730 We do have, and we're really lucky to 359 00:11:49,730 --> 00:11:51,649 have the highest population of new 360 00:11:51,650 --> 00:11:53,649 communities in Ireland in this in 361 00:11:53,650 --> 00:11:55,250 this particular area, 362 00:11:55,250 --> 00:11:57,169 being that it's Dublin inner city, 363 00:11:57,170 --> 00:11:58,340 being that it's the center. 364 00:11:58,580 --> 00:12:04,019 Of our economical, cultural, and 365 00:12:04,020 --> 00:12:06,259 governmental zone. 366 00:12:06,260 --> 00:12:08,179 Everyone who arrives in Ireland, 367 00:12:08,180 --> 00:12:09,379 for the most part, 368 00:12:09,380 --> 00:12:10,419 either arrives by 369 00:12:10,420 --> 00:12:11,940 plane or by boat into 370 00:12:11,941 --> 00:12:12,740 Dublin. 371 00:12:12,740 --> 00:12:15,139 So we are really lucky in that 372 00:12:15,140 --> 00:12:16,500 our new communities start their 373 00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:18,740 lives in Dublin, but often they 374 00:12:18,740 --> 00:12:20,980 don't continue their lives in Dublin. 375 00:12:20,980 --> 00:12:22,340 They move to different counties, 376 00:12:22,341 --> 00:12:23,940 different cities across Ireland. 377 00:12:23,941 --> 00:12:26,179 So as you can imagine, the turnover of 378 00:12:26,180 --> 00:12:27,909 our population within Dublin's North. 379 00:12:27,990 --> 00:12:30,299 The inner city is also quite high. 380 00:12:30,300 --> 00:12:31,980 Um, the area has seen a 381 00:12:31,980 --> 00:12:33,580 seventy-eight percent increase 382 00:12:33,581 --> 00:12:35,419 in population since around the 383 00:12:35,420 --> 00:12:37,580 year2000, which again is 384 00:12:37,581 --> 00:12:39,259 is is quite a high level. 385 00:12:39,260 --> 00:12:40,779 And over the years, 386 00:12:40,780 --> 00:12:42,059 there has been and there 387 00:12:42,060 --> 00:12:44,539 continues to be distrust between 388 00:12:44,540 --> 00:12:46,539 communities and institutions. 389 00:12:46,540 --> 00:12:48,460 And what I mean by institutions 390 00:12:48,461 --> 00:12:50,460 is our policing and our 391 00:12:50,461 --> 00:12:51,899 probation and our justice 392 00:12:51,900 --> 00:12:54,139 system, um, our religious 393 00:12:54,140 --> 00:12:56,269 institutions, um, and 394 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:58,750 Some of our social welfare and 395 00:12:58,750 --> 00:13:00,240 social service institutions. 396 00:13:00,789 --> 00:13:02,620 And again, that's happened over 397 00:13:02,620 --> 00:13:05,259 time and across generations. 398 00:13:05,260 --> 00:13:07,419 So again, a a little bit of context 399 00:13:07,420 --> 00:13:09,980 around who we work with and the 400 00:13:09,980 --> 00:13:11,179 strengths and the pressures 401 00:13:11,180 --> 00:13:12,590 that they experience every day. 402 00:13:14,179 --> 00:13:17,220 So one of the applications and one 403 00:13:17,221 --> 00:13:18,740 of the theories that we've looked at, 404 00:13:18,740 --> 00:13:20,100 and I don't know whether this, 405 00:13:20,100 --> 00:13:21,750 um, this is uh 406 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,879 Common to you, um, 407 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,559 but this is um the ecological systems 408 00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:30,000 theory, and it was developed 409 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,240 by Uri Brom von Brenner in 410 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,080 the late seventies, and as an 411 00:13:34,081 --> 00:13:35,919 organization, and we work 412 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,080 primarily focusing on the 413 00:13:38,081 --> 00:13:39,759 child and the centre of the 414 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:40,480 child. 415 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,120 So it the ecological systems 416 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,200 theory defines the way that 417 00:13:45,201 --> 00:13:46,480 environment influences 418 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:47,840 the development of a child in 419 00:13:47,841 --> 00:13:49,600 every situation, urban, rural, 420 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,360 Ireland, Europe, the world. 421 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,450 And it incorporates everything. 422 00:13:52,919 --> 00:13:54,360 From their home to their neighborhood 423 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,200 to their culture, and really how 424 00:13:56,201 --> 00:13:57,080 everything develops 425 00:13:57,081 --> 00:13:58,440 over time around them. 426 00:13:58,441 --> 00:14:00,279 So the application can illustrate 427 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:01,159 the different systems, 428 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,600 and you can see some of them there. 429 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,200 The child sits at the center, 430 00:14:04,201 --> 00:14:05,559 the micro system su su su su su 431 00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:08,600 su su su su supports them and it 432 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,279 comes out over time into the 433 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,879 exosystem, the macro system, 434 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:13,320 and the chronologic system. 435 00:14:13,321 --> 00:14:15,559 So our project in restorative 436 00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:17,639 practices aims to function 437 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,240 in a similar way, um, 438 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,450 to create a restorative environment. 439 00:14:21,620 --> 00:14:23,529 Around the child, around children, 440 00:14:23,530 --> 00:14:25,450 around families, by developing and 441 00:14:25,451 --> 00:14:27,610 improving the interactions between 442 00:14:27,610 --> 00:14:29,289 both the people within the 443 00:14:29,290 --> 00:14:31,129 environment and the systems that 444 00:14:31,130 --> 00:14:33,210 exist within the environment. 445 00:14:33,211 --> 00:14:35,289 So that's one of the theories 446 00:14:35,290 --> 00:14:36,570 and one of the approaches 447 00:14:36,571 --> 00:14:38,889 that we use to frame our 448 00:14:38,890 --> 00:14:40,649 restorative practice project 449 00:14:40,650 --> 00:14:41,850 and to support it, 450 00:14:41,850 --> 00:14:44,250 and I suppose to evaluate the 451 00:14:44,250 --> 00:14:46,009 trajectory and the impact of what 452 00:14:46,010 --> 00:14:47,340 we're doing and how we're doing it. 453 00:14:48,929 --> 00:14:50,289 Um, oops. 454 00:14:50,290 --> 00:14:54,049 So um, this is um a little 455 00:14:54,050 --> 00:14:56,289 bit more around the 456 00:14:56,290 --> 00:14:59,409 the day-to-day um restorative 457 00:14:59,410 --> 00:15:00,929 practice program. 458 00:15:00,930 --> 00:15:01,929 So 459 00:15:02,049 --> 00:15:03,889 It's not one program. 460 00:15:03,890 --> 00:15:06,289 It's not one specific way of 461 00:15:06,290 --> 00:15:08,450 um delivering something. 462 00:15:08,451 --> 00:15:10,289 It's not one intervention. 463 00:15:10,290 --> 00:15:11,889 It really is a different sort of 464 00:15:11,890 --> 00:15:14,450 set of connected visions of learning, 465 00:15:14,451 --> 00:15:16,049 support, relationships, 466 00:15:16,050 --> 00:15:17,809 meeting people where they are, 467 00:15:17,810 --> 00:15:19,539 um, bringing them in. 468 00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:22,460 And trying to meet the needs 469 00:15:22,461 --> 00:15:23,740 of children, young people, 470 00:15:23,740 --> 00:15:25,100 adults, and families. 471 00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:26,700 So the way we, the, 472 00:15:26,701 --> 00:15:28,700 the the way we've broken it up is, 473 00:15:28,701 --> 00:15:31,019 I suppose, into two different areas. 474 00:15:31,020 --> 00:15:32,059 The first is around 475 00:15:32,060 --> 00:15:33,500 learning and development. 476 00:15:33,500 --> 00:15:35,580 So creating spaces where they 477 00:15:35,581 --> 00:15:37,100 can develop knowledge, 478 00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:39,259 develop skills, and then the other 479 00:15:39,260 --> 00:15:41,100 side is then supporting and 480 00:15:41,100 --> 00:15:42,940 mentoring those individuals 481 00:15:42,941 --> 00:15:44,700 and those organizations to use 482 00:15:44,701 --> 00:15:46,379 restorative practices in their 483 00:15:46,380 --> 00:15:48,299 day to day lives as individuals, 484 00:15:48,300 --> 00:15:50,299 but then as wider organizations. 485 00:15:50,300 --> 00:15:51,009 So as I said. 486 00:15:51,010 --> 00:15:52,120 Whether they be schools, 487 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,799 whether they be youth services, 488 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:54,679 whether they be other 489 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,679 community organizations. 490 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,840 So on the top half of this little 491 00:15:58,841 --> 00:16:01,000 diagram in the orange, 492 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,519 that looks at what 493 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,279 our work um is with 494 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:05,960 children and young people. 495 00:16:05,961 --> 00:16:07,639 So for the teaching and learning 496 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,080 element with children and young 497 00:16:09,081 --> 00:16:11,720 people, we have a number of different 498 00:16:11,721 --> 00:16:13,720 projects that we work with schools 499 00:16:13,721 --> 00:16:15,080 and with youth services, 500 00:16:15,081 --> 00:16:17,080 or with more generally with wider 501 00:16:17,081 --> 00:16:19,450 community children and young people. 502 00:16:20,009 --> 00:16:21,759 They're around really building 503 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,720 relationships, 504 00:16:22,721 --> 00:16:24,240 maintaining those relationships 505 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,759 and supporting children, young 506 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,279 people with the knowledge and the 507 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,840 skills that if and when things go 508 00:16:29,841 --> 00:16:31,600 wrong, that they're able to support 509 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,039 both themselves and their own 510 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,000 health and well being, 511 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,600 and they know where to reach out if 512 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,440 things get a little more out of hand. 513 00:16:37,441 --> 00:16:39,360 Um, so some of the projects we're 514 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:40,960 involved in, the top one there 515 00:16:40,961 --> 00:16:42,879 is called relationship keepers. 516 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,480 Um, and there's lots of different 517 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,399 um titles for it, depending on 518 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,480 the school, um, but it's a peer 519 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:49,490 mentoring program. 520 00:16:49,639 --> 00:16:51,629 Um, and it's right in the front of 521 00:16:51,630 --> 00:16:53,629 my mind because I spent two days 522 00:16:53,630 --> 00:16:55,389 in a post primary school this 523 00:16:55,390 --> 00:16:57,549 week with our transition years. 524 00:16:57,550 --> 00:17:00,429 So they'd be15 or16 year old students, 525 00:17:00,430 --> 00:17:01,950 and they have spent two 526 00:17:01,951 --> 00:17:03,389 full days of school 527 00:17:03,390 --> 00:17:04,828 um developing skills in 528 00:17:04,829 --> 00:17:07,309 restorative practices to support 529 00:17:07,310 --> 00:17:09,390 the very youngest group of 530 00:17:09,391 --> 00:17:11,390 um students in their school. 531 00:17:11,391 --> 00:17:13,068 So after their two full days of 532 00:17:13,069 --> 00:17:14,348 training, they're going to go 533 00:17:14,349 --> 00:17:16,108 back out now into the school, 534 00:17:16,109 --> 00:17:17,068 and they would each be 535 00:17:17,069 --> 00:17:18,640 designated a particular 536 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,269 students or group of students 537 00:17:21,270 --> 00:17:22,838 where they can support um 538 00:17:23,838 --> 00:17:26,318 And mentor and really just 539 00:17:26,319 --> 00:17:28,000 create a sense of belonging and 540 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:29,519 encouragement and inclusion 541 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,519 in the school for them. 542 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,519 Similarly, our opening the door 543 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:34,960 piece of work with our 544 00:17:34,961 --> 00:17:37,440 corporate organizations brings 545 00:17:37,441 --> 00:17:38,960 children and young people and 546 00:17:38,961 --> 00:17:41,599 corporate organizations and volunteers 547 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,279 together again to show young 548 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,599 people that all of these fancy 549 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,200 multinational corporate 550 00:17:47,201 --> 00:17:48,720 organizations that sit on their 551 00:17:48,721 --> 00:17:50,160 doorstep can actually 552 00:17:50,161 --> 00:17:51,200 open the door to them. 553 00:17:51,201 --> 00:17:52,480 Because often what our 554 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:53,569 children and young people. 555 00:17:53,609 --> 00:17:55,920 People think or see is that those 556 00:17:55,921 --> 00:17:58,160 buildings, those businesses aren't 557 00:17:58,161 --> 00:17:59,359 something that we're we're 558 00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:01,680 invited into, or we're involved in, 559 00:18:01,681 --> 00:18:03,200 or where we're even welcome in 560 00:18:03,201 --> 00:18:05,039 because, as I said, of the some of the 561 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,119 educational disadvantage. 562 00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:09,119 Some of the other programs there are 563 00:18:09,120 --> 00:18:10,960 around inviting young people during 564 00:18:10,961 --> 00:18:12,960 the summer into the university and 565 00:18:12,961 --> 00:18:15,519 giving them a sense of what we do, 566 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,039 the faculties that we have, 567 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,480 and our PTEC 568 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,119 um project is the same then as well. 569 00:18:21,120 --> 00:18:22,529 It it invites students into 570 00:18:23,130 --> 00:18:25,920 Not just purely formal academic 571 00:18:25,921 --> 00:18:27,680 um career paths, 572 00:18:27,681 --> 00:18:29,039 but also different career paths 573 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,400 on what they might look like. 574 00:18:30,401 --> 00:18:32,160 The young people then are supported 575 00:18:32,161 --> 00:18:34,000 and mentored through listening 576 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,319 circles, through check-ins, when 577 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,759 things go wrong, th th th th th th th 578 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,440 th th through restorative meetings. 579 00:18:39,441 --> 00:18:41,359 And we've also recently started to set 580 00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:43,680 up a youth advisory panel across all 581 00:18:43,681 --> 00:18:45,279 of those services that we work with. 582 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:46,640 And again, we use restorative 583 00:18:46,641 --> 00:18:49,119 practices and processes to do that. 584 00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:51,039 In the blue, then for the adults 585 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:52,130 in the community, so that would 586 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,109 Be the community professionals 587 00:18:54,110 --> 00:18:55,630 and community members. 588 00:18:55,631 --> 00:18:57,630 We offer standardized courses 589 00:18:57,631 --> 00:18:59,069 as well as individual and 590 00:18:59,070 --> 00:19:00,589 innovative workshops. 591 00:19:00,590 --> 00:19:02,269 So our standardized courses, 592 00:19:02,270 --> 00:19:03,950 we use an academic year. 593 00:19:03,951 --> 00:19:06,269 So they started last week and they 594 00:19:06,270 --> 00:19:08,670 will continue right up until June. 595 00:19:08,671 --> 00:19:09,789 And then our individual 596 00:19:09,790 --> 00:19:11,279 or innovative workshops. 597 00:19:11,839 --> 00:19:13,279 At the moment, just thinking about 598 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:14,640 the ones I've advertised, 599 00:19:14,641 --> 00:19:15,599 we have one with 600 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,119 restorative practices and 601 00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:17,920 sport. 602 00:19:17,921 --> 00:19:20,400 We have one restorative practices and 603 00:19:20,401 --> 00:19:22,480 developing communities of practice. 604 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,480 And we've another two balance that 605 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,559 I've to send to you for the for the 606 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,319 restorative justice international 607 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,599 week that supports um bringing 608 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,170 communities together after harm. 609 00:19:33,750 --> 00:19:35,019 So that's our teaching and 610 00:19:35,020 --> 00:19:37,660 learning part of our offering. 611 00:19:37,661 --> 00:19:40,059 And then again, our adults in the 612 00:19:40,060 --> 00:19:41,259 community are supported 613 00:19:41,260 --> 00:19:43,660 and mentored to, 614 00:19:43,661 --> 00:19:46,140 I suppose, use restorative practices 615 00:19:46,141 --> 00:19:47,740 in in their own day to day lives and 616 00:19:47,740 --> 00:19:49,660 in their day to day organizations. 617 00:19:49,661 --> 00:19:51,579 And we do that through monthly 618 00:19:51,580 --> 00:19:52,940 communities of practice, 619 00:19:52,941 --> 00:19:53,819 which are the last 620 00:19:53,820 --> 00:19:55,500 Friday of every month. 621 00:19:55,500 --> 00:19:56,700 So this afternoon, 622 00:19:56,701 --> 00:19:58,460 that's where I'll be heading off to 623 00:19:58,461 --> 00:20:01,099 after this conference has finished. 624 00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:02,299 And we also use 625 00:20:02,300 --> 00:20:03,630 organizational reviews. 626 00:20:03,740 --> 00:20:04,930 And check ins. 627 00:20:04,931 --> 00:20:07,329 We most recently started to use 628 00:20:07,330 --> 00:20:10,529 or started to request some um 629 00:20:10,530 --> 00:20:12,529 case studies from some of our 630 00:20:12,530 --> 00:20:14,130 organizations that have been using 631 00:20:14,131 --> 00:20:16,450 restorative practices over a number 632 00:20:16,451 --> 00:20:17,650 of years. 633 00:20:17,651 --> 00:20:18,849 I'll share a little bit more 634 00:20:18,850 --> 00:20:21,250 about communities of practice shortly, 635 00:20:21,250 --> 00:20:22,289 but I just wanted to give 636 00:20:22,290 --> 00:20:23,250 you a sense of what our 637 00:20:23,250 --> 00:20:24,369 community wide skill 638 00:20:24,370 --> 00:20:25,809 development looks like. 639 00:20:25,810 --> 00:20:28,609 So we've um our introductory, 640 00:20:28,610 --> 00:20:30,529 intermediate, and advanced courses, 641 00:20:30,530 --> 00:20:31,809 and there are standardized 642 00:20:31,810 --> 00:20:32,450 courses. 643 00:20:32,451 --> 00:20:33,450 So when we 644 00:20:33,730 --> 00:20:35,480 When people engage in an introductory 645 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,400 course, they're provided with really 646 00:20:37,401 --> 00:20:39,400 foundational lot knowledge of the 647 00:20:39,401 --> 00:20:40,759 practices, the principles, 648 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:41,960 and the approaches of 649 00:20:41,961 --> 00:20:43,319 restorative practices. 650 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:44,279 And for lots of people, 651 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,720 this is their first experience 652 00:20:45,721 --> 00:20:47,960 of relational based approaches. 653 00:20:47,961 --> 00:20:50,759 So they can describe often the shift 654 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,960 from, as Marion mentioned, and uh 655 00:20:53,961 --> 00:20:55,799 Federic, you mentioned as well, 656 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,720 the idea of punitive, 657 00:20:57,721 --> 00:20:59,880 um, retribute of, you 658 00:20:59,881 --> 00:21:01,880 know, what rule was what rule was 659 00:21:01,881 --> 00:21:03,289 broken, how can we punish people? 660 00:21:03,410 --> 00:21:04,759 Well, how can we exclude these 661 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,359 people so they don't do it again? 662 00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:08,200 And they really do shift the thinking 663 00:21:08,201 --> 00:21:09,799 to asking what happened, who was 664 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,799 affected, what do we need for, 665 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:12,359 you know, to 666 00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:14,200 happen now to bring us all together. 667 00:21:14,201 --> 00:21:15,880 And we can see that this change 668 00:21:15,881 --> 00:21:17,799 absolutely influences our practice, 669 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,799 our policies, and how organizations 670 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,720 interact and work with each other. 671 00:21:21,721 --> 00:21:23,799 Um, a little quote from one 672 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,960 of our um participants. 673 00:21:25,961 --> 00:21:27,799 It um gave me a new perspective 674 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,000 on how to approach others 675 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:29,960 and what is relevant. 676 00:21:29,961 --> 00:21:31,559 So focusing on the value of the 677 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:32,559 relationship rather than the 678 00:21:32,890 --> 00:21:34,960 Soul event or the soul impact. 679 00:21:34,961 --> 00:21:36,559 And they think it'll be incredibly 680 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,720 useful for developing policies written 681 00:21:38,721 --> 00:21:40,880 within their organization themselves. 682 00:21:40,881 --> 00:21:43,519 So that's the introductory 683 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,519 understanding and perspective 684 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:46,480 and how that sort of 685 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:47,279 shifts. 686 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,279 At an intermediate level, um, 687 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:50,880 we're moving forward toward 688 00:21:50,881 --> 00:21:52,799 more organizational practices. 689 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,559 So that follow on course or 690 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,640 this follow on course focuses 691 00:21:56,641 --> 00:21:58,799 on the practical application 692 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,480 of facilitation of restartu 693 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,130 processes outside of just my. 694 00:22:02,319 --> 00:22:04,640 Day to day way of working. 695 00:22:04,641 --> 00:22:06,640 So people can begin using restorative 696 00:22:06,641 --> 00:22:07,920 circles, meetings, 697 00:22:07,921 --> 00:22:10,640 conversations in real life situations. 698 00:22:10,641 --> 00:22:12,000 And this is where restorative 699 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:12,960 practice, we found, 700 00:22:12,961 --> 00:22:14,640 stops just being training and 701 00:22:14,641 --> 00:22:16,640 starts to become culture because 702 00:22:16,641 --> 00:22:18,240 as the course goes on, and this one 703 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:19,920 in particular is over five weeks, 704 00:22:19,921 --> 00:22:22,000 it's a half day workshop over five 705 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,759 weeks, participants come 706 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,359 back every week and they 707 00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:26,880 share what we did last week. 708 00:22:26,881 --> 00:22:28,000 So they do get a little bit of 709 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,759 homework, and their homework might be 710 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,890 run a circle with10 young people. 711 00:22:32,009 --> 00:22:34,319 people um and have it light touch 712 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:35,920 and ask them about their favorite 713 00:22:35,921 --> 00:22:37,440 activity or their favorite 714 00:22:37,441 --> 00:22:39,599 cultural um thing to do in dublin 715 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,039 city so it's it's quite light 716 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,039 touch at the start and as we move 717 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,200 toward uh the the end of the course 718 00:22:45,201 --> 00:22:46,799 it's uh it's about supporting 719 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:47,839 participants so when 720 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:48,799 things go wrong in their 721 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,559 organization that they have 722 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,400 responsive ways um and 723 00:22:52,401 --> 00:22:54,480 responsive circle processes 724 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,769 um to utilize problem solving 725 00:22:57,630 --> 00:22:59,069 Conflict resolution and 726 00:22:59,070 --> 00:23:00,640 solution focused, uh. 727 00:23:01,900 --> 00:23:03,259 Processes. 728 00:23:03,260 --> 00:23:05,099 Again, one of the quotes is from 729 00:23:05,100 --> 00:23:07,259 another participant who sees ORP as 730 00:23:07,260 --> 00:23:09,180 making a very positive impact in the 731 00:23:09,181 --> 00:23:10,779 organization that they work in, 732 00:23:10,780 --> 00:23:12,380 and that there is potential for it 733 00:23:12,381 --> 00:23:14,380 to be used in more organizations. 734 00:23:14,381 --> 00:23:16,299 So again, it's about expanding 735 00:23:16,300 --> 00:23:17,740 on what happens and what's 736 00:23:17,740 --> 00:23:19,180 being used into wider 737 00:23:19,181 --> 00:23:21,180 organizations. 738 00:23:21,181 --> 00:23:23,099 At the advanced end, then we've 739 00:23:23,100 --> 00:23:24,460 leading with restorative 740 00:23:24,461 --> 00:23:25,740 practices and teaching and 741 00:23:25,740 --> 00:23:26,940 learning with restorative 742 00:23:26,941 --> 00:23:27,660 practices. 743 00:23:27,661 --> 00:23:29,259 So these are two different advanced 744 00:23:29,260 --> 00:23:30,750 courses that I suppose folks. 745 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,509 Because on the one hand on leadership 746 00:23:32,510 --> 00:23:34,029 roles around establishment, 747 00:23:34,030 --> 00:23:34,829 implementation and 748 00:23:34,830 --> 00:23:36,750 sustaining or P culture, 749 00:23:36,750 --> 00:23:39,069 and then on the other side to prepare 750 00:23:39,070 --> 00:23:40,990 participants themselves to design, 751 00:23:40,990 --> 00:23:42,670 deliver restorative practice 752 00:23:42,671 --> 00:23:44,190 training for adult learners. 753 00:23:44,191 --> 00:23:45,710 And we completed one of those 754 00:23:45,711 --> 00:23:48,670 courses in June with sixteen 755 00:23:48,671 --> 00:23:50,109 community members, and those 756 00:23:50,110 --> 00:23:51,549 sixteen were teachers, 757 00:23:51,550 --> 00:23:53,230 were youth organization or youth 758 00:23:53,230 --> 00:23:55,789 leaders, were business owners, were 759 00:23:55,790 --> 00:23:58,349 after school um active 760 00:23:58,350 --> 00:23:59,839 uh educators, we're 761 00:24:00,339 --> 00:24:03,059 Community managers, we're supervisors, 762 00:24:03,060 --> 00:24:04,819 and we're community members. 763 00:24:04,820 --> 00:24:07,220 So really cross community um 764 00:24:07,221 --> 00:24:09,859 at every at every structure. 765 00:24:09,860 --> 00:24:11,299 So the advanced work is 766 00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:13,059 really about sustainability. 767 00:24:13,060 --> 00:24:14,980 So it's about trying to ensure 768 00:24:14,980 --> 00:24:16,900 that individuals, organizations, 769 00:24:16,901 --> 00:24:18,180 and wider community 770 00:24:18,181 --> 00:24:19,190 hubs. 771 00:24:19,490 --> 00:24:21,490 It so that there's internal 772 00:24:21,490 --> 00:24:22,849 leadership, there's external 773 00:24:22,850 --> 00:24:23,970 leadership, there's peer 774 00:24:23,971 --> 00:24:25,329 learning between them, and 775 00:24:25,330 --> 00:24:27,170 there's really local buy in and 776 00:24:27,171 --> 00:24:29,329 local commitment to what's happening 777 00:24:29,330 --> 00:24:30,930 across the North East inner 778 00:24:30,931 --> 00:24:32,609 city. 779 00:24:32,610 --> 00:24:34,609 This is one or two little 780 00:24:34,610 --> 00:24:36,609 photos from last year's some 781 00:24:36,610 --> 00:24:38,289 of our community of practice 782 00:24:38,290 --> 00:24:39,490 events. 783 00:24:39,490 --> 00:24:41,809 You can see the numbers really differ. 784 00:24:41,810 --> 00:24:44,609 We started with probably six 785 00:24:44,610 --> 00:24:46,289 or seven community members, 786 00:24:46,290 --> 00:24:47,809 and as you can see, sometimes 787 00:24:47,810 --> 00:24:48,660 our community of 788 00:24:48,661 --> 00:24:50,569 Practice can have anything up to30 789 00:24:50,570 --> 00:24:52,569 people from different organizations 790 00:24:52,570 --> 00:24:54,490 from different parts of the North East 791 00:24:54,490 --> 00:24:56,940 inner city, including um. 792 00:24:57,809 --> 00:24:58,529 All of the uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh 793 00:24:58,530 --> 00:25:00,529 uh all of the organizations uh that 794 00:25:00,530 --> 00:25:03,410 I mentioned and uh and and beyond. 795 00:25:03,411 --> 00:25:05,700 Um we did host uh 796 00:25:06,910 --> 00:25:07,950 Need to click into that. 797 00:25:07,951 --> 00:25:09,390 We did host a community practice 798 00:25:09,391 --> 00:25:12,190 in June, um, after one or 799 00:25:12,191 --> 00:25:13,789 two critical incidents had 800 00:25:13,790 --> 00:25:15,309 happened in the community. 801 00:25:15,310 --> 00:25:16,509 So for the most part, 802 00:25:16,510 --> 00:25:17,950 our communities of practice would 803 00:25:17,951 --> 00:25:19,230 absolutely be proactive, 804 00:25:19,230 --> 00:25:21,150 would be preventative, but sometimes 805 00:25:21,151 --> 00:25:22,910 when things go wrong in the community, 806 00:25:22,911 --> 00:25:24,829 we do need to step up and we do 807 00:25:24,830 --> 00:25:26,430 need to respond when things go 808 00:25:26,431 --> 00:25:27,549 wrong. 809 00:25:27,550 --> 00:25:29,549 And we did um, we did quite a lot 810 00:25:29,550 --> 00:25:31,390 of work in this community of practice 811 00:25:31,391 --> 00:25:33,069 around how relationships are 812 00:25:33,070 --> 00:25:35,920 central when trauma is experienced. 813 00:25:36,230 --> 00:25:38,380 How communication needs to be layered, 814 00:25:38,381 --> 00:25:39,740 consistent, and trusted so 815 00:25:39,740 --> 00:25:40,940 that everyone in the community 816 00:25:40,941 --> 00:25:42,059 knows what's happening and 817 00:25:42,060 --> 00:25:43,259 understands. 818 00:25:43,260 --> 00:25:45,180 That dialogue really matters as 819 00:25:45,181 --> 00:25:46,940 much as information, um, 820 00:25:46,941 --> 00:25:49,180 when fear, when misinformation, 821 00:25:49,181 --> 00:25:51,180 when trauma is occurring. 822 00:25:51,181 --> 00:25:53,180 Um, and that inclusion needs to 823 00:25:53,181 --> 00:25:54,859 include everybody, not just the 824 00:25:54,860 --> 00:25:56,940 people that you want to talk to. 825 00:25:56,941 --> 00:25:57,900 Um, and as I said, 826 00:25:57,901 --> 00:25:59,740 we've lots of marginalized communities 827 00:25:59,740 --> 00:26:01,500 and families, and lots of migrant 828 00:26:01,500 --> 00:26:02,539 communities and families. 829 00:26:02,540 --> 00:26:03,500 So we really need to be 830 00:26:03,500 --> 00:26:05,180 intentional about how we how 831 00:26:05,181 --> 00:26:06,180 we bring people together. 832 00:26:06,599 --> 00:26:08,119 Um, because communities 833 00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:09,480 are the active partners. 834 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:10,920 So when things go wrong, it's 835 00:26:10,921 --> 00:26:11,880 community members that 836 00:26:11,881 --> 00:26:12,920 hear about it first. 837 00:26:12,921 --> 00:26:13,640 It's not me. 838 00:26:13,641 --> 00:26:14,680 I usually hear second 839 00:26:14,681 --> 00:26:16,440 or third or fourth. 840 00:26:16,441 --> 00:26:19,160 So I just wanted to share that 841 00:26:19,161 --> 00:26:20,839 the June community of practice 842 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,440 session highlighted that it 843 00:26:22,441 --> 00:26:24,200 is back to the communities where 844 00:26:24,201 --> 00:26:25,400 they're best supported, 845 00:26:25,401 --> 00:26:27,319 that their responses can be local, 846 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,200 they can be trauma 847 00:26:28,201 --> 00:26:29,480 informed, they can be inclusive, 848 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,640 and they can genuinely be coordinated. 849 00:26:31,641 --> 00:26:33,000 So when something happens in the 850 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,359 northeast inner city, 851 00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:36,279 we have restart aPractices 852 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:37,319 as an approach 853 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,240 that really immediately can 854 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,400 respond to community harm and 855 00:26:41,401 --> 00:26:43,240 communities needing to talk to 856 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:44,440 each other and speak and 857 00:26:44,441 --> 00:26:46,279 discuss what's going on. 858 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,279 Um 859 00:26:47,900 --> 00:26:50,539 I just wanted to share a little 860 00:26:50,540 --> 00:26:53,500 bit about how we've pulled this 861 00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:55,099 together. 862 00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:57,339 This is, as you can imagine, 863 00:26:57,340 --> 00:26:59,099 a lot of people in the 864 00:26:59,100 --> 00:27:00,940 community over a number of 865 00:27:00,941 --> 00:27:01,740 years. 866 00:27:01,740 --> 00:27:03,579 And a couple of years ago and 867 00:27:03,580 --> 00:27:06,059 around20 late21, early22, 868 00:27:06,060 --> 00:27:07,579 we engaged with Professor Tim 869 00:27:07,580 --> 00:27:09,180 Chapman, who lots of you will 870 00:27:09,181 --> 00:27:11,339 know and be aware of his work. 871 00:27:11,340 --> 00:27:13,660 And Tim helped us in developing and 872 00:27:13,661 --> 00:27:15,420 designing the restarter practice 873 00:27:15,421 --> 00:27:17,150 strategy and implementation plan. 874 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,720 2023 to28, 875 00:27:19,721 --> 00:27:21,160 with lots of community members. 876 00:27:21,161 --> 00:27:21,960 So there was lots of 877 00:27:21,961 --> 00:27:23,799 consultation that happened. 878 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,039 And it was originally recommended, 879 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,640 as I mentioned, when some of those 880 00:27:27,641 --> 00:27:31,400 gangland crimes and 881 00:27:31,401 --> 00:27:32,759 shootings had happened. 882 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,759 So we use this strategy and 883 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,759 implementation plan on a year to 884 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,519 year basis to support what we're 885 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,279 doing, to engage with our local 886 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,599 stakeholders, to, 887 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,279 I suppose, transform, as I 888 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,240 said, restorative 889 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,210 practices from an idea. 890 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,680 From isolated activities to 891 00:27:49,681 --> 00:27:51,839 community wide infrastructure. 892 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,599 So whether it's members of the 893 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,119 community, professionals in the 894 00:27:55,120 --> 00:27:57,359 community, organizations, and 895 00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:59,839 residents, everyone is considered, 896 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,200 and everyone's needs is 897 00:28:01,201 --> 00:28:03,039 are considered within 898 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:03,839 that. 899 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,559 This is an example of what that 900 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:07,599 strategy looks like on 901 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,799 a year to year basis. 902 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,559 So25 to26 was our year three. 903 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,880 So last year,82 organizations 904 00:28:14,881 --> 00:28:17,170 participated,48 of those participated. 905 00:28:17,819 --> 00:28:18,940 in our learning and development 906 00:28:18,941 --> 00:28:20,619 opportunities or courses or 907 00:28:20,620 --> 00:28:22,619 workshops56 of them 908 00:28:22,620 --> 00:28:23,740 availed of mentoring 909 00:28:23,740 --> 00:28:25,660 and support visits both in person 910 00:28:25,661 --> 00:28:28,059 and virtually31 of them attended 911 00:28:28,060 --> 00:28:29,259 the community of practice 912 00:28:29,260 --> 00:28:31,019 meetings eighteen of those 913 00:28:31,020 --> 00:28:32,779 organizations so eighteen out of the 914 00:28:32,780 --> 00:28:35,019 eighty two participated in all three 915 00:28:35,020 --> 00:28:37,579 across the board on on average this is 916 00:28:37,580 --> 00:28:39,259 kind of tense to what our numbers be 917 00:28:39,260 --> 00:28:40,859 look our our our numbers look like 918 00:28:40,860 --> 00:28:42,460 so around four hundred and seventy 919 00:28:42,461 --> 00:28:43,980 five individuals attended 920 00:28:43,980 --> 00:28:45,740 um events last year so that 921 00:28:45,740 --> 00:28:46,750 was between the training 922 00:28:47,259 --> 00:28:48,690 And the mentoring and support. 923 00:28:48,691 --> 00:28:50,210 So on average, between four 924 00:28:50,211 --> 00:28:51,329 hundred to five hundred on a 925 00:28:51,330 --> 00:28:53,089 year on year basis is is kind 926 00:28:53,090 --> 00:28:54,690 of in and around what we what 927 00:28:54,691 --> 00:28:55,650 we look at. 928 00:28:55,651 --> 00:28:58,450 Um, I'm happy to send this on balance. 929 00:28:58,451 --> 00:28:59,450 Um 930 00:28:59,500 --> 00:29:02,700 Uh, later, but this is what uh our 931 00:29:02,701 --> 00:29:05,420 our year four um strategy looks like. 932 00:29:05,421 --> 00:29:06,779 So it looks at strategy and 933 00:29:06,780 --> 00:29:08,220 sustainability, it looks at 934 00:29:08,221 --> 00:29:09,819 capacity and quality of what we're 935 00:29:09,820 --> 00:29:11,420 delivering and developing, and 936 00:29:11,421 --> 00:29:12,619 it looks at the community 937 00:29:12,620 --> 00:29:15,099 and support systems um and 938 00:29:15,100 --> 00:29:16,940 how they impact and interact 939 00:29:16,941 --> 00:29:19,660 with um in relation to 940 00:29:19,661 --> 00:29:22,220 relationships and and communities. 941 00:29:22,221 --> 00:29:24,700 Um this is back to our Bron from 942 00:29:24,701 --> 00:29:26,779 Brenner's uh ecological 943 00:29:26,780 --> 00:29:27,819 systems theory. 944 00:29:27,820 --> 00:29:28,910 So what we suggest is 945 00:29:29,299 --> 00:29:31,130 That becoming a restorative city is 946 00:29:31,131 --> 00:29:33,049 really developmental, and it moves 947 00:29:33,050 --> 00:29:35,130 from individual inquiries like our 948 00:29:35,131 --> 00:29:36,970 courses through engagement and 949 00:29:36,971 --> 00:29:38,569 organizational embedding, again, 950 00:29:38,570 --> 00:29:40,970 as our courses expand on toward 951 00:29:40,971 --> 00:29:42,970 expansion across networks and the 952 00:29:42,971 --> 00:29:44,730 the emergence of a restorative 953 00:29:44,730 --> 00:29:46,809 community that really is grounded and 954 00:29:46,810 --> 00:29:48,170 embedded from the 955 00:29:48,171 --> 00:29:49,849 community all the way up. 956 00:29:49,850 --> 00:29:52,089 So it's not a top down um 957 00:29:52,090 --> 00:29:53,690 piece of work, it's definitely 958 00:29:53,691 --> 00:29:54,940 top down and bottom up. 959 00:29:55,980 --> 00:29:56,980 Um 960 00:29:57,539 --> 00:30:00,180 And we're developing a model to look 961 00:30:00,181 --> 00:30:02,180 at what that development looks like. 962 00:30:02,181 --> 00:30:04,180 So the first individual stage would 963 00:30:04,181 --> 00:30:06,259 be inquiry around individual learning 964 00:30:06,260 --> 00:30:08,019 and reflection and readiness. 965 00:30:08,020 --> 00:30:09,700 We move on to engagement, 966 00:30:09,701 --> 00:30:11,299 so where the learning moves 967 00:30:11,300 --> 00:30:13,220 into relationships, practice, 968 00:30:13,221 --> 00:30:16,180 processes um within their immediate 969 00:30:16,181 --> 00:30:18,099 organizations, whether it's children, 970 00:30:18,100 --> 00:30:19,220 young people, adults, 971 00:30:19,221 --> 00:30:20,019 families. 972 00:30:20,020 --> 00:30:21,859 Engagement then moves to embedding. 973 00:30:21,860 --> 00:30:23,140 So when they have the knowledge, 974 00:30:23,141 --> 00:30:24,259 when they have the skills, 975 00:30:24,260 --> 00:30:25,220 when they have the confidence 976 00:30:25,221 --> 00:30:26,869 and the practice, it starts. 977 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,910 Become part of everyday organizational 978 00:30:28,911 --> 00:30:30,029 culture, whether that's through 979 00:30:30,030 --> 00:30:31,470 leadership, through policies, 980 00:30:31,471 --> 00:30:32,750 procedures, or through 981 00:30:32,750 --> 00:30:34,589 general decision making. 982 00:30:34,590 --> 00:30:36,990 Embedding then, when that happens, 983 00:30:36,990 --> 00:30:38,430 we've seen and it's starting to 984 00:30:38,431 --> 00:30:40,349 expand then beyond individual 985 00:30:40,350 --> 00:30:41,390 organizations. 986 00:30:41,391 --> 00:30:42,829 So we found over the last 987 00:30:42,830 --> 00:30:44,509 couple of years that our 988 00:30:44,510 --> 00:30:47,150 community network meetings, so no 989 00:30:47,151 --> 00:30:48,829 one community organized 990 00:30:48,830 --> 00:30:50,829 organization owns these meetings. 991 00:30:50,830 --> 00:30:51,710 They're working groups, 992 00:30:51,711 --> 00:30:53,309 they're subgroups. 993 00:30:53,310 --> 00:30:55,390 We all meet restoratively now, 994 00:30:55,391 --> 00:30:57,069 and because all ofThe learning 995 00:30:57,070 --> 00:30:58,829 and the skills and the use has 996 00:30:58,830 --> 00:31:01,230 expanded into other organizations. 997 00:31:01,230 --> 00:31:02,910 And then the piece that we definitely 998 00:31:02,911 --> 00:31:04,109 haven't gotten to yet, 999 00:31:04,110 --> 00:31:07,150 but it's in the in the future is that 1000 00:31:07,151 --> 00:31:08,910 the North East Ener City will be 1001 00:31:08,911 --> 00:31:10,990 an ecosystem, a connected system 1002 00:31:10,990 --> 00:31:12,430 and environment where all 1003 00:31:12,431 --> 00:31:14,349 organizations, agencies, policy, 1004 00:31:14,350 --> 00:31:16,589 and community makers wrap 1005 00:31:16,590 --> 00:31:18,029 everything they do around a 1006 00:31:18,030 --> 00:31:19,519 restorative practice framework. 1007 00:31:21,089 --> 00:31:23,650 So how do we know it's working? 1008 00:31:23,651 --> 00:31:26,289 We evaluate so we do post. 1009 00:31:26,290 --> 00:31:29,250 Sorry, you reached the limit of your 1010 00:31:29,250 --> 00:31:32,210 ask you to come to a summary of the 1011 00:31:32,211 --> 00:31:33,410 I'll wrap up on this one then. 1012 00:31:33,411 --> 00:31:34,849 Thanks, Valent. 1013 00:31:34,850 --> 00:31:37,170 So we evaluate all of our programs. 1014 00:31:37,171 --> 00:31:39,089 Most of them we evaluate pre and post, 1015 00:31:39,090 --> 00:31:40,849 the shorter ones we just do post. 1016 00:31:40,850 --> 00:31:41,970 But what we found last year 1017 00:31:41,971 --> 00:31:44,690 was97% rated post program 1018 00:31:44,691 --> 00:31:46,450 knowledge as good, very good, or 1019 00:31:46,451 --> 00:31:47,250 excellent. 1020 00:31:47,250 --> 00:31:48,450 Ninety eight percent said that 1021 00:31:48,451 --> 00:31:49,319 that knowledge and skill. 1022 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,069 Skill was transferable into their 1023 00:31:51,070 --> 00:31:52,509 organizations and themselves and 1024 00:31:52,510 --> 00:31:55,309 the practice, and97% more felt 1025 00:31:55,310 --> 00:31:56,670 more confident in using and 1026 00:31:56,671 --> 00:31:58,589 utilizing restorative practices. 1027 00:31:58,590 --> 00:32:01,950 So I'm gonna go all the way to the 1028 00:32:01,951 --> 00:32:03,470 last one and say our 1029 00:32:03,471 --> 00:32:04,509 story isn't about, 1030 00:32:04,510 --> 00:32:06,509 uh, is about sorry, one community 1031 00:32:06,510 --> 00:32:07,869 gradually building relationships, 1032 00:32:07,870 --> 00:32:09,069 confidence, confidence, 1033 00:32:09,070 --> 00:32:10,349 and infrastructure. 1034 00:32:10,350 --> 00:32:11,789 As I said, the project isn't 1035 00:32:11,790 --> 00:32:12,990 one single component, 1036 00:32:12,990 --> 00:32:15,069 it's connection among components. 1037 00:32:15,070 --> 00:32:16,509 Courses create knowledge, 1038 00:32:16,510 --> 00:32:18,079 mentoring supports application. 1039 00:32:18,319 --> 00:32:19,509 Our communities of practice 1040 00:32:19,510 --> 00:32:21,109 sustain that confidence. 1041 00:32:21,110 --> 00:32:22,630 Organization leadership 1042 00:32:22,631 --> 00:32:25,430 creates the consistency and 1043 00:32:25,431 --> 00:32:27,349 participation. 1044 00:32:27,350 --> 00:32:29,670 Really is the key to expanding 1045 00:32:29,671 --> 00:32:31,190 and making sure that the legacy 1046 00:32:31,191 --> 00:32:33,029 and the longevity of the program 1047 00:32:33,030 --> 00:32:34,950 remains with community members and 1048 00:32:34,951 --> 00:32:37,480 not necessarily with the top down. 1049 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,069 So that's me. 1050 00:32:39,070 --> 00:32:40,069 Thank you.
