Summary of professional role
Rick Hall is Director of Programmes for Ignite! an independent not-for-profit organisation which promotes creativity in learning. Rick is also founder of rehearsal.org.uk – a space for improvisation and experiment.
Why I am involved in the Training Observatory
There is a need to clarify and deepen our understanding of work that is designed to engage the personal motivations of young people and especially those young people who are marginalised, criminalised and otherwise excluded from mainstream opportunities. In particular we need to understand what works.
My view is that young people can be engaged in learning if it is designed collaboratively and delivered creatively. The Training Observatory brings together people with a range of experience and expertise for the purpose of developing shared understanding.
Area of expertise/interest
- Work with young people using creativity
- Youth arts
- Inter-disciplinary approaches
- Interested in developing new IT based platforms for co-creating, producing and curating work by, with and for young people
- Interested in creative approaches to identity.
