The Decolonising Knowledge Practices card set combine with a Self-Assessment and Strategy Planning Board to form a Decolonising Knowledge Practices toolkit.  Download a copy of the Welsh Decolonising Knowledge Practices card set and accompanying Self-Assessment and Strategy Planning Board using the button links and follow the “How To Use This Tool” guidance below.

HOW TO USE THIS TOOL

Each card has prompts of good practice in different dimensions associated with your work. You can think of other examples that are more relevant to the context of your project or the needs of your team. The intent here is to help you assess your current practices and prompt you (and your team) to reimagine and improve the way you do your work.

You can also use the enclosed dashboard to evaluate your performance. This provides a simple scale that you can use to assess your individual practices and/or team efforts. Just place a tile on the square that you think better defines how well are you doing in each dimension. Then reflect on your results and decide what changes you can make to upgrade different aspects associated with your work practices.

To turn your assessment into a performance improvement strategy, set some priorities considering how important and time-sensitive each area is. You may find it useful to use a simple method such as:

1. Start by addressing the things that are important and urgent.

2. Plan for things that are important but not urgent.

3. To improve your team's performance and wellbeing, make small changes at your own pace, without committing a lot of energy or resources.
