On 6 October 2010, 45 people gathered at the Abbotsford Convent in Melbourne for the very first Appreciative Inquiry Forum – Exploring Appreciative Inquiry in Australia.
The majority of participants were from Victoria, but there were a number of folk from other states as well.
Many others, both in Australia and internationally, sent their apologies, but wanted to know the outcomes of the forum and any future activities or events that may emerge.
So on this site you will find:
- An overview of the ‘story of the forum’ and its background
- A summary of the ideas that emerged
- A photo gallery
Nine people at the forum, representing three states, have volunteered their time and energy to be part of a ‘working party’ that will explore moving things forward from here. There will be more news as a result of their efforts – and more opportunities to become involved for those working with or interested in Appreciative Inquiry in Australia.
As this news emerges, it will be added to this website. There is also a flash presentation still to come, combining images of the forum and some of the ‘voices’ of those present on the day.
So Watch This Space!
