We call ourselves Goori meaning “is blood”. When meeting for the first time Goories share specific cultural information based on ancient lore/law and kin systems. Visitors arriving for different reasons and times underwent processes to ensure that both they and all upon country were safe. Upon completion came the Welcome to Country by Elders, feasting and celebrations. Under Goori law, one only speaks for their bloodline tribal areas or country. Today, Acknowledgements can be done by anyone, community elders and
As a Yagarabul Goori, Elder and cultural custodian from the First Peoples of Magandjin, (now called Brisbane), I write in the spirit of reconciliation to welcome you all, travellers from far away or nearby countries and locals to attend this amazing Social Enterprise World Forum.
For over 60 000 years, Magandjin has hosted countless gatherings and been home to large tribal districts with expansive Goompies (villages). Tribes were named after flora. Magandjin means Tulipwood tree district. My tribal districts include Magandjin, Boroogar (Moreton Bay) and Moodjeen, west Yagara. We are recognised traditional owners in three native title claims. Yagara djarra begins south-west of Brisbane at the Great Dividing Range and neighbour four countries - Wakka Wakka, Yugembeh, Gubbi Gubbi and Jinibara

Welcome to SEWF 2022!
6 SEWF22 SEWF2022.COM FOREWORD
The Social Enterprise World Forum is committed to accelerating our transition to a global impact economy. Our contribution is the work we do to support and activate our global social enterprise movement through capability building, connections and advocacy. We are an enabler, a convener and a catalyst as we provide the opportunity for the social enterprise
The conversation has changed significantly in the last 14 years, out of passion and out of necessity. The concept of social enterprise has gained visibility, traction and recognition: the once best-kept secret has turned into an effective and proven solution to transforming the way we create and trade value.
What started as a small gathering of inspired social enterprise leaders back in 2008 has grown into a truly global movement.
#SEWF22 PROGRAM & HANDBOOK 7
movement to collaborate for social change. We are honoured to represent the people who make the social enterprise movement; the entrepreneurs and innovators who create impact in their place and the communities and people that support their work to achieve a fairer more inclusive economy.
As a movement, we’re the most global we’ve ever been, and we have the greatest sense of place we’ve ever had. To transition to a new impact economy we need greater, faster innovation, deeper connections and more effective collaboration. And we need to hear the voices of the communities – because they know best what a thriving life in a thriving place should looks like. So my hope for our global community is that we continue to grow the movement, welcoming and connecting with peers from various fields, backgrounds and disciplines, so that together we can envision new possibilities and co-create a better future.
Hélène Malandin Chair, SEWF
This is the reason why this event is designed for and by social enterprise practitioners. Being part of SEWF is only worthwhile if the knowledge you gain, the inspiration you take away and the connections you make, help you get ahead in your day-to-day undertakings. Systemic change starts with positive impact in places and in communities, and in this time of global change strong community initiatives that bring people together are more important than ever before. We understand and we embrace the importance of local context, culture and local relevance. A growing number of Community Hubs are engaging with the program in their own way this week - discussing, unpacking and making sense of the learning as discrete communities, in their unique context.
As we convene in person for the first time since 2019, we encourage all in-person and online participants to be open and authentic, share your struggles as well as your successes and support others on their journey. Have a wonderful SEWF22!
As the official co-host, White Box Enterprises is extremely proud to welcome you to Meeanjin Brisbane, Australia, for the 15th Social Enterprise World Forum.
As the history of these events has shown, the connections we form, discussions we have and actions we commit to during the forum have the power to be transformative for our sector, shoring up our role in solving some of our world’s most complex social problems.
Since the idea to bring SEWF to Australia was sparked in 2018 by Impact Boom’s Tom Allen and Yunus Centre’s Alex Hannant (who brought SEWF17 to New Zealand), and as the idea was shepherded to reality by English Family Foundation’s Belinda Morrisey and the Queensland Social Enterprise Council, our sector ecosystem has united like never before.

SEWF22 marks a flagship moment for the social enterprise sector, in Australia and around the world.
The galvanising effect it’s already had on our national sector has been remarkable.
#SEWF22 PROGRAM & HANDBOOK 9
Despite this mounting energy, the critical role social enterprises can play in building a more inclusive global economy remains vastly under-leveraged. Barriers continue to hold back many in our sector from reaching their SEWF22potential.provides us with an opportunity to chip away at those barriers, to continue the work to help accelerate the sector’s role in creating a new global impact economy.
I’m also thankful to all participants for the role you’re playing in our sector, at a time when our planet and communities need us more than ever.
The resulting momentum across the social enterprise sector is palpable. We’re certainly feeling it at White Box Enterprises, as the strong demand for each social enterprise or jobs hub we build paves the way for the next.
This cohesion comes as more people than ever are flocking to the values at the heart of our sector.
I’m thankful to the global SEWF team for helping us build such a strong program.
I look forward to dreaming, innovating and collaborating with you on new ways to cement our sector’s fundamental place in the economy, and drive home the value of creating a world where all business are Thissocial.isthe time for our sector to shine.
Luke Terry CEO and Co-founder, White Box Enterprises
We have a new national peak body, Social Enterprise Australia; work is well underway on a national strategy; collaboration has strengthened between our state networks; our governments are coming to the table; and new dialogues have opened up with corporates and philanthropic foundations.
They’re directing their support to businesses, like ours, that value people above capital, provide essential services and contribute to a fairer, green and digital transition; businesses, like ours, that create jobs with impact, that engage youth and coalesce to fix social problems.
The devastating toll of the pandemic and growing urgency to address the climate crisis has caused many to think deeply about the fragility of communities and the planet. As they do so they’re searching out pioneering businesses, like ours, that act as a force for positive change.
Hybrid sessions will take place in the BCEC Ballroom and Auditorium and be livestreamed and recorded. All participants, whether online or in person, will be connected via our event platform Hopin to ask questions and comment in the chat during the session.

The majority of workshops and masterclasses will be in person (not livestreamed or recorded) in breakout rooms at BCEC with a selection of online masterclasses as part of the online program.
Panels feature 3-4 speakers and a moderator in discussion around a specific topic with time for questions from participants. A selection of panels will be hybrid (Plaza Ballroom and Auditorium) with others in breakout rooms at BCEC (in person only) and others online.
SESSION TYPES
The SEWF Unconference is your chance to connect with fellow participants and discuss the topics that matter most to you.

So whether you’re looking to make new friends or learn from experts in your field, the Unconference is the perfect place to start. In-person only.
Fireside chats feature a speaker in conversation with an interviewer with the opportunity for participants to ask questions through the app and online.

Web3, blockchain and DAOs are increasingly in the news with some championing their potential to create greater equity through greater transparency and decentralisation. In this panel we go beyond the jargon to discuss emerging tech’s potential within the social enterprise movement for social impact and how we ensure that the tech designed for greater equity doesn’t in fact do the opposite.

•Engaging local suppliers
•Choosing ethically produced clothing for staff and volunteers that they will want to wear •Hiringagainreusable exhibitor pods
As far as event managers go (and we have worked with a lot of them over the past 11 years), the SEWF team have really pushed themselves when it comes to sustainability, showing their commitment to do the right thing rather than the easy thing, and genuinely seeking feedback along the way.
The SEWF team have done a magnificent job of procurement with Zero Waste and social good in mind, including:
70 SEWF22 SEWF2022.COM
The Social Enterprise World Forum team have been building sustainability into this event for months, and I’m so excited that they chose to work with us to design a Zero Waste event. To do that, it’s as simple and as hard as asking two questions about every item that comes in to the event:
BEHIND THE SCENES: ZERO WASTE EVENT
Yes, waste. It’s dirty and smelly and problematic. We bury it in giant holes in the ground, we burn it in incinerators, we throw things ‘away’ and hope we never have to think about where ‘away’ is. None of that is sustainable. It’s the very definition of unsustainable – we can’t keep doing it forever. So it has to change. We have to Likechange.allbig
WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?
•Buying local food, and not overordering
•Briefing exhibitors on sustainable choices ahead of time, and working closely with the venue on event design
The social enterprise sector tackles some huge challenges, from food security to modern slavery, from deforestation to waste.
WELCOME TO SEWF22, A ZERO WASTE EVENT
•Avoiding: landfill-bound items, overordering and items we don’t really need
problems, there’s no easy solution or single set of people responsible for tackling it. It begins with each of us making better choices and expecting better of ourselves and others.
•Minimal single use plastic at the event
While a lot of effort has gone in to avoiding waste, there will be some rubbish produced and we want to compost and recycle as much as possible, so at this event you’ll see:
Thank you for doing your part to reduce, reuse and recycle, at this forum and beyond, so that we can all be part of a Zero Waste future.
#SEWF22 PROGRAM & HANDBOOK 71
•Compostable lanyards with seed paper inserts
WHERE WILL IT GO?
•Sustainability guidelines for exhibitors and attendees (we hope you got the memo – go digital; refuse excess; bring only reusable items in; consider your transport options)
•More digital, less printed materials

•Compostable or reusable alternatives to duct tape and cable ties on the exhibitors’ stands
•Sorting waste to compost and recycle as much as possible (avoiding contaminated waste streams from going to landfill)
•Multi-bin waste stations, with waste educators ready to help you to know which bin to use: compost, recycling or landfill and containers for change
This year’s waste outcomes (and sustainability measures of all kinds) will set a benchmark for future SEWF events, and the blueprint for sustainable events at this venue and at others around the world.
On top of that, the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre staff have partnered with us to do a lot of back-of-house work

You’ve settled into a nook at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre (BCEC) and you’re about to tuck into a delicious feed. You wonder who made the food, where the ingredients have been sourced from, and whether everything is as sustainable as possible.
Running a large-scale event like SEWF 2022 comes with its limitations. In order to feed 1500 people quickly and seamlessly, there are systems and processes that we must adhere to. Thankfully, BCEC were willing to accommodate our requests.
The first thing we did was bring Chef Chris Jordan on board, a Koori man born on Bundjalung land, and owner of Brisbanebased food and events company Three Little Birds. Chris is a vivacious and passionate lover of all things tasty and connects with his First Nations ancestry by cooking with native ingredients. Alongside his business, he has held collaborative pop-up dinners that grapple conceptually and gastronomically with Indigenous food sovereignty, cultural dispossession and climate change. In other words, he was the perfect person for the job.
WHAT’S COOKIN’ AT SEWF 2022?
food prep, much of what you consume has been prepared at local social enterprise Food Connect (which is one of the pit stops on the Brisbane Bus Tour B!) and at a local juvenile detention centre, where at-risk young people can upskill in realworld hospitality projects. We are committed to supporting social enterprises wherever Wepossible!hope you enjoy tucking in this week, SEWF 2022 Team
Chris was able to introduce a number of local and sustainably grown ingredients to the dishes on offer at SEWF 2022, supporting a number of Indigenous-owned farms (like Galeru: Forever Fruits featured on the Sunshine Coast Bus Tour) in the process. With an 80% vegetarian menu, most of the meat that is used is sustainable harvested as featured in the wild Kangaroo Salami. For the rest, we’ve ensured there’s a strong presence of native foods from local Insuppliers.termsof

It’s co-owned and shaped by the Australian social enterprise sector.
This collaboration has developed a shared vision and mission.
Social Enterprise Australia is the new peak body for social enterprise in Australia. We connect the sector to plan, act and learn together. We do this to have a shared national strategy and voice, and to develop new ways to build social and environmental wellbeing.
We have developed shared values and principles – how we agree we will work together:
I see that the future is not determined and is ours to create. I foster space to dream big, explore, and make mistakes or get it right. I recognise that it’s ok and sometimes good to change my mind and for others to change theirs. I seek to emerge ideas, take action and learn together.
Authenticity: I strive to be honest with myself and with others.
• Environmental care
SOCIAL AUSTRALIAENTERPRISE
I recognise that some people are excluded and their voices are not heard. I aim to identify and reject discrimination and to value lived experience and selfdetermination. I seek to be aware of any exclusion or privilege of my own.
• Community-led innovation
Creativity: I help create space for imagination and innovation.

Our vision is working together to ensure all people, places and the planet thrive. Our mission is to foster a vibrant and connected Australian social enterprise sector that provides:
Working together for people, place and the planet
WHY IS THIS SUCH A BIG DEAL?
I seek to be transparent and clear in my communications, talk with others not about them, and do what I say I will. I take on difficult conversations, decisions and actions rather than avoid them. I aim to own my mistakes and limitations. I seek to be kind to myself and others.
• People-centred services
• Access to decent work
Justice: I seek to enable the full participation of all.
I recognise that there are different ways to participate and create impact. I ask people what they mean, listen with curiosity and seek to understand rather than make assumptions or speak for them. I celebrate the contribution of others and recognise that I always have things to learn.
There’ll be a campaign to profile and promote the value of social enterprise.
Engagement and connection
We’ll also come together to co-design our ask of the Federal Government to enable the sector to grow its impact.
We also mapped what we will build momentum and infrastructure for, to work together nationally:
be done to enable real-time understanding of practice and impact and to support decision-making.
I will be generous. I aim to be aware of my ego, assumptions and emotions and to keep in check how they affect me and others. I seek joint responsibility rather than credit. I am upfront about my own interests to identify when they could undermine or help shared goals.
Collaboration: I plan, act and learn with others.
It will provide pathways for people to engage and co-create around place, mission and sector development. It will connect existing collaborations and activities and facilitate new ones that the sector sees as critical, including cross-sector and global initiatives. These will inform shared direction and action.
