LAUNCH: Children Draw|Create|Share Belonging

During the Children's Voices Conference (CVC2206) we had the official launch of Children Draw|Create|Share Belonging. Associate Professor Kathy Cologon and Dr Zinnia Mevawalla officially launched this new research project with CVC staff, affiliates, adjuncts and community members (especially children). We had a lot of fun creating artworks by learning about one another and depicting special aspects about that person to engage in an understanding of inclusion and belonging.

Children Draw Belonging: Children's insights

It has been a very special week with my young friends who have had such an influence on my research and how I listen to children. In the past, this group of children have initiated and shaped our research projects: Children Draw Talking, Children Draw Playing and  Children Draw Health. Today they participated in the Children Draw Belonging research. This is the first project that they have not initiated (this time another group of children initiated it). They had some good insights. I love learning from these children.
