Welcome to the Sjiraffen Culture and Competence Center's seminar!
VOICES IN DEMOCRACY - INCLUSIVE CULTURAL PRACTICES IN LIGHT OF IMPLEMENTATION OF CRPD
This year's seminar is based on the implementation of the CRPD in Norway. We look at how people with cognitive functional variations can be ensured equal participation in cultural and social life, and how trust can be built between individuals and society.
How can research and facilitated, practical knowledge creation contribute to more inclusive services and strengthened trust? How can people with cognitive functional variations create and communicate art and knowledge, and actively participate in the social debate?
We invite both the professional artistic community, the educational community and the leisure and cultural life in Trøndelag to participate in these days!
Dissemination and sharing of experiences will take place through professional presentations, practical workshops and performing arts, by professionals from the fields of art, psychology and social sciences. Actors in Sjiraffen who themselves have functional variations will contribute with workshops and sharing of experiences. We share experiences, practices and methods from inclusive cultural practice, and explore the interaction between cultural and social science perspectives.
SJIRAFFEN PRODUCTIONS SHOWS THE PERFORMANCE LIFE'S MOVEMENTS
It is a collage of many tools and fragments of stories from lived life, based on interviews with young people with functional variations, and is an important contribution to the discussion.
The seminar is part of the Research Days 2026 in collaboration between Sjiraffen Culture and Competence Center and DMMH. It is made possible as part of Sjiraffen's partnership agreement with Trøndelag County Council.
