Silvia

CAVA and youth event in August

Lots of organizing work!
Chicos Ragga are recording - specifically a song about social justice - stories about youth in Cartagena
Roberto and Elbert are also organising
Mr Black - a musician in Cartagena https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnG_Om5FfwA

Environmental Guardians are part of the government - they work closely with ? EPA and Cardique - 2 departments of the government - Guardians help them to collect environmental data
The mayor of Cartagena will be at the event, as well as at CAVA - he will open the ceremony at CAVA

Creation of 4 OERs

2 for Guardians, created by citizens - but Guardians are providing techinical support for these MOOCs
Using openEdX to create them
1st - about environmental education - to engage people in caring for environment

Creating videos to explain to people what the data means - what these variables mean for the environment, the city

Women experience obstetric violence
So many People coming from Venezuela too
The health system can’t support
Women go to hospital or medical center to give birth, the procedures are not up to standards, not enough resources,
Create a resource to visualize the problem -
Young women aren’t aware of the problem, so don’t know what to do about it
Creating video stories about real cases of obstetric violence
For example, knowing which hospitals and clinics are good and which are not
Creating a blog too - in Wordpress - a place of interaction between the women and other actors

Cartagena did not have any policy about youth
Plataforma Jueves (?) - platform for youth - they are create a methodology to create a youth policy
Create a platform to facilitate this communication
(Liam - for the Mooc stuff, it may be useful to consider TIGed as the host learning managemennt system, no pressure :))
They are working on content now,
Silvia - how would that work?

Don’t need to download anything

TIG has worked with IDRC using TIGed as well (Outside IN) so there is a basis for doing this http://outsidein.tigweb.org/
Could maybe even do both and compare them
Liam could give more examples - finished product and blank template “sandbox” to play with - he will share these
They are not locked into OpenEdX at this point so they can explore

TakingITGlobal

Indigenous language activity at Fort York in Toronto - lots of history of Toronto
Education days - young students coming to learn about Indigenous rights
Project Heart - making tiles - picture of students from residential schools one side, hopeful images on other side
These were mounted in a canoe

Inclusive Design Guides (2)

Remain designing and implementing WITH rather than FOR
Not many on TIG staff who identify as having a disability
Matthew Shapiro (6 wheels consulting https://www.6wheelsconsulting.com/) - has CP, wheelchair user, familiar and interested in what TIG is doing
How do we create an inclusive organisational culture?
Figuring out the best way to engage Matthew - to ensure it goes well
Wander Walk - for example - those who don’t walk - how to make this inclusive - have to revisit the activities, be open and transparent about the process
Maybe do a design crit at IDRC too? Maybe down the line
Workshop activities too
Dana will share some of the other activities we’ve been working on - storytelling workshops, cities work, etc, - need to update the Guide activities too

IDRC

Also how to generalize the Cities Resources guide - and make applicable to activism, youth groups etc
The lunchboxes idea - OSFO - how to create your own inclusive design guide - piece the modules together
Storytelling tool
