Fish bowl session notes
About the Fishbowl Sessions
The Fishbowl format at the Australian Social Cohesion Summit 2025 invited participants to engage in open, rotating conversations on three key themes: Neighbourhoods, Women, and Youth.
Each session brought together community leaders, practitioners and attendees to share lived experiences and explore how belonging, trust and participation are built in everyday life.
The insights captured below reflect the collective wisdom and practical ideas shared by participants and documenters on the day.
