Module Aims
The main aims of the module are:
To introduce students to inclusive, ethical, and person-centred facilitation practices, supporting the development of values-led approaches that reflect empathy, compassion, and care in diverse workshop contexts.
To equip students with foundational skills and knowledge for planning and delivering safe, accessible creative sessions, enhancing their confidence in academic, applied, and work-based learning environments.
To support students in exploring their emerging artistic identity as facilitators, encouraging the integration of creative skills with inclusive principles to respond meaningfully to the needs of individuals and communities.
Content Summary
Inclusive Facilitation introduces you to the principles and practices of safe, accessible, and inclusive facilitation within creative workshop settings. Through experiential learning, you will explore how to create welcoming environments that support diverse needs, identities, and abilities. As with your previous module, your learning will be informed and inspired by observations of real-world creative facilitation and communication with participants.
The module encourages critical reflection on power dynamics, communication styles, and ethical considerations in group work, with a focus on trauma-informed and person-centred approaches. This alongside your practical experiences will now enable you to begin to develop your own facilitation style, informed by creative methods and inclusive values. This module lays a foundation for your future practice by equipping you with essential skills in planning, adapting, and delivering creative sessions that foster participation and wellbeing.
As part of the wider Creative and Therapeutic Arts programme, Inclusive Facilitation supports you in becoming thoughtful, responsive practitioners who can work effectively in community, educational, and therapeutic contexts.
