At Rituu's lovely invitation, I'm thrilled to share my recent TEDx Talk, entitled:

"Playful Inquiry - Try this Anywhere."   

In a wealthy country like Australia, in land surrounded by commercial food production, it is ironic that many families suffer with poor access to good quality food.

Ces Vendredi4, Samedi5 et dimanche6 juillet, nous avons participé à trois jours d'apprentissage des bases de la facilitation, et de l'approche SALT.

L'apprentissage de pratiques passe aussi par la démonstration des "profs", et le résultat était vraiment probant !

Vivement la mise en pratique.

Ideally these should be people…
