Session Summary:
Something a little different for you this month. We are going to be looking at the new look Boingboing website and showing you round! Emily has been hard at work incorporating your feedback to improve the accessibility, ease of navigation and impact of the site. Several of the pages that get the most traffic have been redesigned to increase engagement and to reflect the fact that the work we are doing has really flourished in the last few years, so we need to make sure that you can find what you want quickly and easily, whilst still hearing about our new endeavours. Book your place now.
Presenters:
Emily Gagnon
Emily has been volunteering and working with Boingboing for the best part of a decade, having first encountered the Boingboing community through voluntary work with and alongside young people with experience of mental health issues. Somewhere along the way she completed her PhD looking at young people's beliefs and attitudes around psychoactive substances (what were known as legal highs) and since then she's been busy working with Boingboing and the Resilience Revolution to help design and deliver a whole range of co-produced outputs including lots of digital offerings on the Boingboing website. Along the way, with feedback from the Boingboing, CRSJ and Resilience Revolution community she's been giving the website a bit a of refresh to better reflect all the fabulous work and resources that has been produced over the last decade since the site was launched.
Who might be most interested:
Academics, practitioners, researchers, students, carers, community workers, service users, people with lived experience of mental health problems, young people, adults, all ages.
