This book is dedicated to Karl Langheinrich, long-time organizer and supporter of SpeakOuts.
Karl assisting at a workshop, Perth, 2003
Numerous SpeakOut activities over the past two decades in several countries have involved far too many individuals to name individually.
We thank colleagues and clients who embraced this creative process, community people, students and agency employees who trained as supportive facilitators, community activists and innovators, passers-by on the day who took time to participate, older people, children, teenagers, parents, homeless people…
Volunteers. And consultants.
We needed the insights and patience of all of these people to develop this community engagement method and we acknowledge their contributions with deep gratitude.
