The theme of this Participation Cymru event is ‘Participating through the arts’.

Are you interested in widening your engagement activities and exploring new approaches for participatory decision making?

These events will be an opportunity for people and projects to share their creative approaches to engagement; also for other engagement practitioners to share their perspectives on related issues of co-design, co-production and participation.

These regional participation networks are suitable for anyone working in the field of participation and citizen engagement. This network event is also suitable for artists and academics who are interested in socially engaged practices and public participation.
