Introduction to open learning
These are spaces where key learnings are shared through webinars. They are open to all to gain insight and ideas for change. We will commission learning experiences on an ongoing basis.

- Co-create online knowledge-sharing forums, events and experiences (e.g., learning workshops, story circles, panel discussions, curious conversations, Q&As and other forums).
- Are open to all to engage, explore and learn.
- Are guided by key topics and themes identified by the sector.
Global examples
