We were commissioned as a community anchor research organisation by Birmingham City Council to work on a community-led collaborative action learning report.
This work was designed to help build a strategy for the ‘Levelling Up’ funding for East Birmingham Regeneration 💚
We then collated the research and commissioned Grand Union studio artist Sarah Taylor Silverwood to work with the community to design a 'Visual “community voice” Action Plan' to make visible the voices that are not usually heard in city planning for community support decisions.
‘Sebastia Disagreement’ by Yiru Qian is one of the films we’re screening as part of Screening Rights Film Fest. This film unpacks the occupation of Masudiya and Sebastia stations, once crucial sites for Palestinian agricultural activity.🚂
