About Us
Children and young people’s experiences and perspectives contribute significantly to new knowledge and enhance the communities and services they engage with. We are on the cusp of change from quality service provision to young people to foregrounding community with young people.
Our training and research emphasise the importance of equipping both adults and young people with the right tools to implement meaningful young people’s participation and integrate what each person brings to intergenerational collaborations.
Interactions Institute supports you as an individual or organisation in becoming an effective facilitator and ally for young people’s meaningful participation, informed by evidence-based intergenerational collaborative approaches.
Our learning community provides both online and face-to-face training through;
Interactions Institute specialises in the conceptual underpinnings and practical innovative skills of intergenerational collaborations; and the wellbeing and social justice implications of this. Drawing on research evidence into best practice, our approach uses futures-foresight methodologies and the relational-interactional conceptual model.
We work with organisations (government and non-government), communities, and individual practitioners to ensure our training is responsive and crafted to meet your specific requirements, cultural safety, and social challenges.
We also offer pre and follow-up consultations and mentoring to support effective implementation of new practices.
Our training offerings include;
- professional development training for adults who work with young people
- participation training for/with children and young people
