CVSL Annual Conference 2022 - Working in hybrid spaces

After a challenging two years, has the work of voluntary sector organisations changed forever, or is it back to business as usual?

This year’s CVSL conference will explore the (old and new) spaces in which the sector’s work takes place.

We will share research and speak with partners about learning and leading through digital technologies; the continuing importance of ‘local’; changing parameters of collaboration; and the impact of work to make the spaces of voluntary action ever more inclusive.

A range of workshops will explore the opportunities and challenges of collaboration, ethics, how to develop leadership practice online and will provide opportunity for you to help shape CVSL’s future research and learning programme.

You will have an opportunity to hear the experiences of others, to make new connections and we hope, feel re-energised, ready for the new ways of working we find ourselves in.
