Team
We are a group of artists, academics, practitioners, systems administrators, policy makers and interested citizens. Our Guiding Principles are Collaboration, Dialogue, Diversity, Working to Strengths and Consent. We have come this far on the sweat equity of the founding members, nascent network members, advocates and expert support. Who knows what the future will bring? For now we are concentrating on making the assembly the best it can be.
