An important read from my very good friend and colleague Martin Westin.
Hot off the press! EC´s Martin Westin just publish a paper on the framing of power in communicative planning theory. An important read for anyone interested in understanding power within public participation, collaboration and dialogue.

Covid has forced us to find alternative ways to teaching. It's been challenging but also exciting to learn about and use online facilitation platforms as part of my course Conflict, Democracy and Facilitation.

We´ve had to find online alternatives to the all essential whiteboard for teaching multistakeholder collaboration & facilitation. Great to see how students are using these new tools for analysing Environmental Justice in Berlin, Melting glaciers in Nepal, NRM in New Zeland, etc.

Is there time for public participation when we need urgent action? Some friends and I reflected on why we should use the urgency of our times to rethinking participatory planning. This as part of our Swift and Slow @FormasForsk research project. More here

Times of crisis calls for swift planning. But we mustn't reject the ideas of participation, even though it implies time-consuming processes: slow planning. Instead we ought to rethink them. New blogpost by @MartinWestin74 @urbandifference Andrew Butler. vbct.es/3eAKd5L
Happy to have participated in the @MistraEC webinar series where my colleague Martin Westin presented our @MistraForskning project on Government-led dialogues and how we ought to rethink power an conflict in participatory planning. More info here:

An important read of which I am very proud to be a co-author!
How do we actually conduct research?🤔We at @ec_slu joined forces to write about difficult dilemmas in our #critical, #engaged and #change-oriented scholarship. Read our brand new paper here:

Conflict and disagreement have constructive potential, they are a resource of creativity and can avoid exclusion, say @BergeaSlu and Lars Hallgren ... my good colleagues at @ec_slu
#collaboration #dialogue #deliberation #planning
At @Skogsstyrelsen workshop on the 7 years of dialogue towards shared 'målbilder' goals in Swedish #forestry, EC´s @BergeaSlu & Lars Hallgren say: the search for #consensus should embrace the constructive potential of disagreement; #disagreement is a resource (details in thread)
I had the honor to be a co-supervisor to this fantastic PhD thesis. The thesis is a must read and an important contribution to both theory and practice of participatory planning. – at Stockholm, Sweden

happy to share that @FormasForsk will finance my research project “A balancing act between swift and slow planning” exploring how to balance the need for swift planning addressing urgent sustainability challenges, with, often slow yet essential, participatory planning processes – at Stockholm, Sweden
