In this episode, we have Ashley Proctor [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-m-proctor/] and Jerome Chang [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeromechang/] from The Coworking IDEA Project - a global network of coworking operators, associations, community organisers, and collaborative consultants seeking to make coworking more inclusive, diverse, equitable, and accessible. 

Tune in as they talk about this month's mission Disrupting the Status Quo: Demanding Diversity in Coworking Conferences [https://coworkingidea.org/2023/05/04/may-2023-idea-challenge/]. They talk about how Coworking should be diverse, long-term, inclusive, and focused on the community. And how leaders, speakers, and sponsors can help to foster diversity and inclusion. Collaboration and policies are essential to meeting conference expectations.

Coworking IDEA Challenge May 2023: Disrupting the Status Quo

Welcome to Coworking Values, the European Coworking Assembly podcast.

We post two weekly episodes that explore one of the values of accessibility, community, openness, collaboration and sustainability.

The Renegades of Flow episode with Emily, which airs twice a month, also covers project workflow and creator tips.

Tony also hosts a show called Belongfulness, which looks at the best ways to re-weave our social fabric through coworking.

Listen in to learn how these values can make or break Coworking culture.

Hosted by Emily Breder [https://www.linkedin.com/in/emilygbreder/], Bernie J. Mitchell [https://www.linkedin.com/in/berniejmitchell/] and Tony Bacigalupo [https://www.linkedin.com/in/tonybacigalupo/]
