Workshops for collaboration

Bring Working with People to your organization! We’ve been teaching workshops at organizations and schools around the country, building capacity for just and equitable collaborations. Recent workshop hosts have included the Center for Urban Pedagogy, the Laundromat Project, the New School, the Design Futures Forum, and the Watson Foundation.

The WWP curriculum

The Working with People curriculum builds a foundation for equitable partnerships between students, faculty, and community-based groups and non-profit organizations, by exploring the complex and contradictory contexts in which users, collaborators, and organizations live and work. This series of modules, resources, and exercises can be used as a framework to complement existing classes, or as a stand-alone short course or series of workshops in preparation for later partnerships.

About Working with People

“Working with People” fosters critical conversations around “civic engagement” and the pedagogy and politics of collaborating “with communities.” Using  critical keywords and the juxtaposition of their multiple meanings, WWP teaches workshops, hosts symposia, develops curricula, and continues to build this website of public media, always looking for new partners and new ways that this work might help spur conversations on complex issues around collaboration, community, power and difference.

About This Project

“Working with People” is led by Gabrielle Bendiner-Viani and Shana Agid and develops critical and innovative pedagogical approaches in the growing field of engaged practice, community collaborations and co-design within design and the liberal arts, by focusing on the complexity and contested nature of "keywords" at the core of this work.

Working with People collaborates with the interdisciplinary practice Buscada to create this space for dialogue around the contested definitions of engagement.

Buscada creates projects that engender dialogue between communities, individuals and disciplines to explore critical questions of place and visual urbanism. We use curation, design, research and photography to bridge the online and the physical world, as well as the expressive and the practical.

The project has been supported by the New School fund for Innovations in Education, the University Civic Engagement Committee, and the Rockefeller Foundation's Fund for New York City.
