2. Using sensitive material in words and images that are not our own, asks for a dialogue between people. Transforming them into a story that makes sense to all, asks for trust and shared responsibility between participants. Therefore you are all invited to work on the ethics of storytelling, storylistening and sharing stories in the age of digital communication and explore notions such as prejudice, stereotypes and appropriation.
3. The following questions should be addressed when you will work on your own groups after the course.
· How do we bear shared responsibility that people’s stories are told and shared respectfully?
· How can we support them so that their stories are empowering, giving them a voice and promoting positive change, fostering social justice and equality?
Within the NACCS project, you can learn how to be aware of prejudice, stereotypes and appropriation when working with stories and how to set up a storytelling and story-sharing strategy based on shared values.
4. Narrative accountability as a professional practice addresses fundamental ethical issues related to reflective professionalism and the way decision-making is organized in present-day democracy, governance, and (public) administration. This course will help you address the pitfalls of decision-making processes in policy-making and (local) governance.
