Across Narrative Generations: Co-Sparking with Emerging Voices

Many mentors are preparing the next generations(s) by supporting local practitioners in early career, bringing narrative practice to higher education settings and teaching workshops in Europe, Asia, North America, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand. We witness- and take delight – in the emergence of new voices within a generation of narrative practitioners. The presence of these “fresh voices’ contributes immeasurably to our learning community. We are co-learning together.

What I Learned From My Mentor

Across Narrative Generations: What I learned from my mentor is a new community project. With the help of film editor, Etienne Proulx, we created five short Youtube Videos from conversations at Narrative Camp 2019. These videos helped us start a new Youtube Playlist here .Please check out our new page that includes a contribution form to add your own video and audio recordings.

In 2017, we started Emerging Voices as a section of our website. Our hope is to continue to strengthen, promote and illustrate co-learning side-by-side between narrative generations.
