Convene, Challenge, Connect was an accessible and imaginative sector development programme, delivered for the Birmingham 2022 Festival.

Convene, Challenge, Connect was co-created with the region's arts, cultural, heritage and community sector, and brought together our collective knowledge from across the region to deliver the programme, ensuring it was effective, sustainable and useful for organisations, community groups and freelancers.

The programme ran from July to October 2022 and included a freelancer development cohort as well as a wide range of strategic and practical events, workshops, webinars and Q&As that were open to all.

The webinars are still available to watch on our YouTube channel - click the button below to explore the Playlist.
