Welcome to Magandjin, Yagara Country Ngambilli Yo-wah Yuuingan nga marumba beren! Ngambilli nguru millen ngandu dahndiyirri Warra-na carumba nari-ba Yagara djarra beren tahgu.

Friendly greetings all and good day!

Many blessings all who gather today by our great river in Magandjin on Yagara country.

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.

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 others.

Gaminggan warilco nga beren wan-yari, Goori nari-ba millen-baru nga yuuingan djarra-na doogal-yacca. Nhambilli beren gindina nga wan-nguru Yagara djarra-na balka-maroomba.

I acknowledge Elders past and present, the many ancestors, ancient neighbours and friends who cared for country. Everyone enjoy being here, blessings and welcome on Yagara country, Gaja Kerry Charlton.

FOREWORD

Welcome to SEWF22!

What started as a small gathering of inspired social enterprise leaders back in 2008 has grown into a truly global movement.

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.

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

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.

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 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 look 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.

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!

Hélène Malandain Chair, SEWF

#SEWF22 PROGRAM & HANDBOOK 7

WELCOME 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.

SEWF22 marks a flagship moment for the social enterprise sector, in Australia and around the world.

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.

The galvanising effect it’s already had on our national sector has been remarkable.

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 Morrissey and the Queensland Social Enterprise Council, our sector ecosystem has united like never before.

8 SEWF22 SEWF2022.COM

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.

This cohesion comes as more people than ever are flocking to the values at the heart of our sector.

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.

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 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.

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 potential.

SEWF22 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 thankful to the global SEWF team for helping us build such a strong program.

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.

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 businesses are social.

This is the time for our sector to shine.

Luke Terry CEO and Co-founder, White Box Enterprises

BEHIND THE SCENES

#SEWF22 PROGRAM & HANDBOOK 69

BEHIND THE SCENES: ZERO WASTE EVENT

WELCOME TO SEWF22, A ZERO WASTE EVENT Written by Kylie Flament, General Manager at Green Connect (at the time of writing) The social enterprise sector tackles some huge challenges, from food security to modern slavery, from deforestation to waste.

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 change.

Like all big 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.

The Social Enterprise World Forum (SEWF) 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:

70 SEWF22 SEWF2022.COM

WHERE DOES IT COME FROM? The SEWF team have done a magnificent job of procurement with Zero Waste and social good in mind, including: •Engaging local suppliers •Buying local food, and not overordering • Choosing ethically produced clothing for staff and volunteers that they will want to wear again •Hiring reusable exhibitor pods • Briefing exhibitors on sustainable choices ahead of time, and working closely with the venue on event design • Avoiding: landfill-bound items, overordering and items we don’t really need 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.

WHERE WILL IT GO? 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: • 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 • Compostable lanyards with seed paper inserts • 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) • Minimal single use plastic at the event • Compostable or reusable alternatives to duct tape and cable ties on the exhibitors’ stands

On top of that, the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre staff have partnered with us to do a lot of back-of-house work including: • Auditing waste to know where our messaging worked well and where it didn’t • Sorting waste to compost and recycle as much as possible (avoiding contaminated waste streams from going to landfill) • Weighing and measuring each waste stream 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.

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.

•More digital, less printed materials

We help organisations to create meaningful opportunities for the hidden talent and overlooked jobseekers in our communities, creating impact through employment.

CATERING

WHAT’S COOKIN’ AT SEWF 2022?

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 SEWF22 comes with its limitations. In order to feed over a thousand 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.

72 SEWF22 SEWF2022.COM

Chris was able to introduce a number of local and sustainably grown ingredients to the dishes on offer at SEWF22, 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 suppliers.

In terms of 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 possible!

We hope you enjoy tucking in this week, SEWF 2022 Team

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.

WHY IS THIS SUCH A BIG DEAL? It’s co-owned and shaped by the Australian social enterprise sector.

This collaboration has developed a shared vision and mission.

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: • Environmental care • People-centred services • Access to decent work • Community-led innovation We have developed shared values and principles – how we agree we will work together:

74 SEWF22 SEWF2022.COM

Authenticity: I strive to be honest with myself and with others.

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.

Creativity: I help create space for imagination and innovation.

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.

Justice: I seek to enable the full participation of all.

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.

Collaboration: I plan, act and learn with others.

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.

Diversity: I seek out views that are different from my own.

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.

We also mapped what we will build momentum and infrastructure for, to work together nationally: Engagement and connection

be done to enable real-time understanding of practice and impact and to support decision-making.

Shared direction and action It will lead a national strategy and work with others to build public will, advance policy, grow markets, and mobilise resources. These functions will be co-owned and shaped by all who support the vision, mission, values and principles of the sector.

WHAT’S NEXT? There’ll be a campaign to profile and promote the value of social enterprise.

We’re developing an investment case to estimate the national contribution of and share stories from the sector.

We’ll also come together to co-design our ask of the Federal Government to enable the sector to grow its impact. socialenterpriseaustralia.org.au

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.

Knowledge and learning It will provide ways to share and learn about social enterprise and evolve to meet the interests and needs of the sector. This will include capturing data and knowledge from the sector and shared evaluation. It will
