“I stopped thinking ‘what help does Brent need’ and started thinking ‘how can Brent be helpful’...”
- Dawn, Mother. Oshawa, Toronto

Fellowship: Key InsightsAn inclusive, connected society…
1. Valued contributions are at the core of inclusive,
connected communities.
2. The answer to loneliness, isolation and exclusion may
lie in platforms, initiatives and cultures that enable
people to unearth and share their unique, innate
gifts.
![Page 31: Befriend Inclusive, connected communities · •Harnessing the power of technology •Simplicity and practicality. Key Principles • Values base of fun, curiosity, authenticity,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060507/5f1ff106eb8a9d423e4ddda8/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Fellowship: Key InsightsAn inclusive, connected society…
3. Learning to see, receive and genuinely value the
innate gifts of others is at the core of individual and
collective belonging.
![Page 32: Befriend Inclusive, connected communities · •Harnessing the power of technology •Simplicity and practicality. Key Principles • Values base of fun, curiosity, authenticity,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060507/5f1ff106eb8a9d423e4ddda8/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Fellowship: Challenging QuestionsAn inclusive, connected society…
1. How can we challenge the practice of ‘grouping’
together a historically devalued group of people, that
is undermining efforts to grow inclusive, connected
communities?
![Page 33: Befriend Inclusive, connected communities · •Harnessing the power of technology •Simplicity and practicality. Key Principles • Values base of fun, curiosity, authenticity,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060507/5f1ff106eb8a9d423e4ddda8/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Fellowship: Challenging QuestionsAn inclusive, connected society…
2. How can we shift from a culture of service provision
to a culture of contribution, connection and
purpose?
![Page 34: Befriend Inclusive, connected communities · •Harnessing the power of technology •Simplicity and practicality. Key Principles • Values base of fun, curiosity, authenticity,](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060507/5f1ff106eb8a9d423e4ddda8/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Fellowship: Challenging QuestionsAn inclusive, connected society…
3. How can we enable each other to discover,
appreciate and share our innate gifts, especially
those of us for whom the world has said, “you have
no gifts or value.”
