A Culture of Care Nest agreement is a flexible social agreement that enables individuals (both freelancers and within and organisation), to work together within a Culture of Care i.e. a mutually equitable and nurturing environment. They include any access requirements, personal considerations when working together, an 'In Good Faith Agreement', Kindness Pledge and a process to address any difficulties or changes that may arise.
The Culture of Care Nest has been designed to be a user-friendly tool kit. However, you can choose to work with a facilitator to complete the agreement. Rewilding the Artist can provide a Nest facilitator; this is especially useful for projects where agreements may be needed between a number of individuals.
The Nest Agreement complements the Rewilding the Artist a field guide but is also standalone tool.
