Welcome to the ‘Working WIth Not To’ Co-Production Project website

We are a pan-Wales project working to grow co-production, from grassroots up, through meet-ups, training, facilitation and sharing of resources. Our approach is to work everyone, at every level, so everyone is included, and that these conversations result in action and progress. Our definition of co-production is:  ‘A group of people, working with each other as equals, from the start, to achieve a goal.’

CO-PRODUCTION MEET-UPS ACROSS WALES
We facilitate ‘meet-ups’ with speakers and participant discussion sessions, we use the assets of our community and co-produce the event together.
