Lived Experience

Lived and Living Experience roles exist in diverse organisations and settings, spanning entry-level to executive leadership roles. While it’s true that everyone has some experiences of distress and adversity, not everyone has significant challenges that take their lives in an entirely new direction. Lived and Living Experience roles are primarily informed by life-changing challenges and experiences

Lived Experience Kommuniti was initiated in November 2023 by Kommuniti HQ founder Allan 'Big Al' Connolly, Social Entrepreneur in Community Wellbeing and Development including the Prevention and/or Ending of Homelessness, Poverty, and Loneliness.

There has been much talk in Government and the Community Services Sector about embedding Lived Experience into the very fabric of democracy that determines policy and systems and yet again, the progress has been minimal and painstakingly slow, often at the expense of Lived Experience Experts who are still traversing their pathway out of Homelessness, Poverty, and Loneliness in all it's forms.

Sociocracy as a form of Governance
This membership site is modeled on the Governance values of Sociocracy, where everybody has a voice and nobody is left behind.

Lived Experience is a Kommuniti within our wider Kommuniti Circle, designed to empower those who may have had a life-changing event leave them in a state of Ill-being. We offer companionship and support for them to begin their journey back towards Well-being and to be able to contribute in any small way to the Communities where they may or may not get the choice to live.

Membership of Kommuniti is FREE and always will be!
