Sharing Practice: Navigating Multiple Relationships - not Dual Relationships’
This dialogue problematizes limitations of ‘dual relationships’, and embraces complexity around creating ethical relationships that might engage fluid boundaries that centre people and cultural connections of workers.
Workers from targeted communities are hired for cultural knowings and connections-then policed out of these connections with charges of being in dual relationships-silencing them from making explicit the ethical tensions that allow them to be accountable and protect people from transgressions. We will look at fluidity of existing in multiple relationships with practices of accountability and ‘making public’ that centre safety of people we work alongside.
This dialogue could be useful to workers from small/isolated, targeted and oppressed communities, and all workers struggling to centre accountable complexity in relationships.
