The Co-production planner includes a suite of facilitation tools that you can use in co-production projects. Iriss produced a publication in 2016 about using tools in social services, it is a really useful introduction to tools and is nicely illustrated too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This Iriss On\u2026 is the result of collaboration between Iriss<\/a> and the Leapfrog project<\/a> (a research project lead by Lancaster University in partnership with the Glasgow School of Art). The work of both Iriss and Leapfrog has revealed first-hand how people work together differently when they have a tool that gives them permission to engage with others in a different way. We\u2019ve also found that people\u2019s trust and confidence in using tools can vary; we sometimes need to encourage practitioners to give tools a \u2018go\u2019, and to better understand the effectiveness of their use in practice. Here we draw on this experience to take a closer look at tools, their role in creative engagement and the challenges that accompany using them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DOWNLOAD THE PUBLICATION <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
