Dundee, 00:01, 11 May 2024

10 weeks, gone in a flash! Having welcomed hundreds of people into 7 Castle Street, a space formerly empty for 7 yrs, we're happy that Hapworks_00 will continue with a summer events programme and more coworking opportunities as we develop the long term! creativedundee.com/2024/05/hapwor…

Just a few days for Amps to propose a collaboration to be enabled by this year's Community Ideas Fund of £2,500 voted by fellow Amps at April's Forum.

Love how the network/fund has grown organically and generatively, with a heap of Jen Collins care.

Deadline: Sun 31 Mar.

Standing room only at Dundee’s Changemakers Hub, Not Another Visioning event! Total powerhouse of people in the room, connecting and hearing more about the Hub, with talks from the Press Change young community journalists.

Inspiring. Movement building!

So good to see how in-depth this work is going, uncovering who owns which vacant spaces on our high streets and making the data transparent.👏🏻

Hope-giving and system-shifting?
We think Dundee Changemaker’s Hub will be.

💭 If only we had a researcher to follow this exciting project from beginning shoots to what will come.
Any academics with community innovation/changemaking focus, do consider any spare capacity. 😉
