Candid Connections: A Space for Honest Conversations Across Borders
One of the most energising developments this year has been the growth of Candid Connections, our informal monthly gathering open to all members of the IFS global network.
Held online on the last Wednesday of every month, Candid Connections offers a welcoming space for:
- Open, unfiltered conversation
- Peer support and shared learning
- Honest dialogue around real-life challenges in community work
Our first sessions explored vital topics including:
- Advocacy and public messaging
- Cultural sensitivity and inclusive language
- Organisational challenges and cross-cultural engagement
What makes these sessions special? There’s no set agenda — just space to show up, share what matters, and be heard.
💬 “It’s a chance to connect with others who understand the work — and the heart behind it.”
— A recent participant
Whether you’re frontline staff, a board member, or a regional leader, we invite you to join this growing space of trust, learning, and global solidarity.
Next Session: July 30, 2025 at 10 PM Sydney time | Online
