Changing Perspectives.
For meetings and people.
punda milia is the Swahili word for zebra, but literally translates into striped donkey.
Everything is a question of perspective: whether a zebra is a black-and-white horse or a striped donkey depends on where you grew up, what you have learned, and what you believe in.
​
A zebra has many stripes. I have many skills that I love to put into practise and share with people. I believe in meaningful processes, in opening boxes, in asking questions, in connecting mind & body - and first and foremost in changing perspectives.
Anti-Bias
​
“It is not about overcoming our differences, it is about acknowledging them”
​
The Anti-Bias approach is a tool for anti-racist education including multiple discrimination (intersectionality). It assumes that every person has experienced discrimination and has discriminated against other persons at the same time.
As a trainer, I work with the Anti-Bias approach especially in the field of Diversity Management for international organisations.
Facilitation
I have over 12 years of experience in meeting facilitation. Planning, tuning, delivery and reporting all form part of my services. Alone or in a team, flexible or static agendas, everything is possible.
Additionally, I have experience in event organisation, volunteer coordination/management as well as with a wide array of monitoring & evaluation tools.
Graphic Recording
​
I am a self-taught graphic recorder and have been capturing conferences and meetings graphically since 2017.
I do live recordings, I provide visualisations for processes, I work with participatory elements in my recordings and I record both analogue and digital - remote as well as in presence.
“I asked the Zebra,
Are you black with white stripes?
Or white with black stripes?
And the zebra asked me,
Are you good with bad habits?
Or are you bad with good habits?
Are you noisy with quiet times?
Or are you quiet with noisy times?
[…]”
