Communities in Control Conference 2009 Communities in Control Conference 2009 CRISIS, CATASTROPHE, COMMUNITY: REBUILD, RENEW, RECHARGE Monday 15 & Tuesday 16 June 2009 Melbourne, Australia PLUS: PRE-CONFERENCE SKILLS DAY Sunday 14 June 2009 Fundraising, Advocacy & Evaluation: How to use indicators to produce compelling evidence- based proposals Co-Convened with: Communities in Control ourcommunity.com.au One of the 16 Knowledge Centres of: Crisis, Catastrophe, Community: Rebuild, Renew, Recharge In times of physical, environmental and economic hardship, community organisations become more important than ever, providing a safety net for the injured, the grieving, the traumatised, the jobless, the homeless, the vulnerable; giving people a place to recover, to belong, to heal; providing help, support, hope, empathy and light relief. As Australia reels from the shock of calamities from bushfires to floods to global economic turmoil, a new world is emerging. There will be challenges for many people, and for community organisations – but also opportunities. HOW WILL THE AUSTRALIAN COMMUNITY SECTOR REACT? • What lessons must be learned from the events of recent months that have at times plunged our world into chaos? • How can we build the resilience and creativity necessary to rethink our approaches to social, environmental and economic development as we learn to adapt to new ways of doing and being? • How can we develop the visionary leadership in communities that is necessary to drive these new approaches? • How can the community sector, business, government, academia and the media come together to pursue solutions to the complex problems before us? • What do we need to do now, today, to become the modern, dynamic, flexible organisations we need to be in order to open ourselves to new ways forward? JOIN THE COMMUNITIES IN CONTROL MOVEMENT! Play a part in the development of solutions to the most challenging questions of our time. Come together with the leaders of communities across Australia, along with local, state and federal government officials, business leaders and all those who think about or care about Australian communities. OUR COMMUNITY Our Community is a world-leading social enterprise that serves as the national gateway for Australia’s 700,000 community groups and schools, providing a one- stop shop for practical resources, support and linkages between community networks and the general public, business and government. CENTACARE CATHOLIC FAMILY SERVICES Centacare Catholic Family Services is a co-convener of Communities in Control. The organisation provides services to assist those who are vulnerable or disadvantaged with a focus on prevention and greater social inclusion through the promotion of opportunity and advocacy for fairer social structures.

  • 04 Part Two Chapter 4-5 Everett
    PART TWO. "So what are you doing now?" "Well the school of course." "You mean youre still there?" "Well of course. I will always be there as long as there are students." (Jacques Lecoq, in a letter to alumni, 1998). 79 CHAPTER FOUR INTRODUCTION TO PART TWO. The preceding chapters have been principally concerned with detailing the research matrix which has served as a means of mapping the influence of the Lecoq school on Australian theatre. I have attempted to situate the research process in a particular theoretical context, adopting Alun Munslow's concept of `deconstructionise history as a model. The terms `diaspora' and 'leavening' have been deployed as metaphorical frameworks for engaging with the operations of the word 'influence' as it relates specifically to the present study. An interpretive framework has been constructed using four key elements or features of the Lecoq pedagogy which have functioned as reference points in terms of data collection, analysis and interpretation. These are: creation of original performance material; use of improvisation; a movement-based approach to performance; use of a repertoire of performance styles. These elements or `mapping co-ordinates' have been used as focal points during the interviewing process and have served as reference points for analysis of the interview material and organisation of the narrative presentation. The remainder of the thesis constitutes the narrative interpretation of the primary and secondary source material. This chapter aims to provide a general overview of, and introduction to the research findings. I will firstly outline a demographic profile of Lecoq alumni in Australia. Secondly I will situate the work of alumni, and the influence of their work on Australian theatre within a broader socio-cultural, historical context.
