relational activism - Invidious

relational activism

Welcome to Relational Activism
A channel born from social work, shaped by lived experience, and inspired by the arts.

We believe relationships are the foundation of meaningful change. Whether in child protection, human services, or community life, this channel explores how empathy, creativity, and connection can transform the way we work and care.

Rooted in practice—but reaching beyond it—we draw on poets, artists, storytellers, and system-changers to reimagine services that listen more deeply.

Here you’ll find:

Relational Heroes – portraits of people who lead with courage, humility, and relational intelligence.

Clips from the Messy Social Work podcast – candid, reflective conversations about the complexities and beauty of care.

Lived experience stories – voices of those who’ve journeyed through services and now help shape them.

This space is for practitioners, artists, advocates, and anyone rethinking how we support one another.
