 Hi, my name is Bettina Kehler and I work for the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre. We just had a session about learning from failure, or as you can put it gently, learning from when things don't go according to plan. And I think it was a space that generated the opportunity for people to share their experiences of challenging situations, difficult situations, failures of their experience in their professional life, and to really reflect on their own learning while sharing these stories or while listening to stories. I think the long term goals, the long term goal is really that ultimately we must become a lot better at reflecting on our failures. I think we need to think about transitioning ways of reporting, ways of learning, ways of thinking about monitoring and evaluation into a space where we embrace reflection on failure, where we reward, if I feel courageous enough to share failure. So we really allow people to learn from their own experience and most importantly we don't have the time to keep repeating our own mistakes. So I think it's really crucial, but it really needs to be embraced at all levels. It needs to be embraced at the levels of the donors, at the levels of organisational management hierarchies to really allow people a safe space to really share these lessons that they have from failure because they're very precious. I was quite nervous about the session today because it was an experiment. I wasn't sure if anyone was going to be even willing to share some of their lessons or failures. And I was amazed because people were very focused, they were very dedicated, they really listened very well and the atmosphere in the room was amazing. It was calm and focused, there were so many people in the room and yet it felt like a very focused and quiet space, I was very impressed. Highlight for me I think was seeing the quietness when participants were asked to reflect on their own failures and it felt like it was complete silence with all these people in the room but you could feel their presence and I could feel them think, it sounds really strange. But for me I thought the power of reflecting is actually really great and for me that was a highlight, I felt there was an amazing energy in the room.
