Soapbox Citizens

📣We are a social enterprise bringing young citizens together to amplify their voices and drive positive change in their communities. #getonyoursoapbox

[New Local @wearenewlocal]

Community power works by asking what a person or a place needs to succeed, not what targets need to be hit or services government can offer.

People-led approaches put the whole person or place first & get the public sector out of service silos.

Why does #EverydayCitizenship matter?
Because without it we cannot do the shared work our world really needs. @jonjalex @MaffPotts @CormacRussell @angelafell @JaLock82 @MarkusVahala @redpresspub

Some important themes from today's discussion:

- Climate education (Ed) has to start young in the early years 👏
- Climate Ed must be co-created with young people. It is their future 🌍
- Climate Ed has to be integrated in every subject throughout the day

Relational Design
"In seeking to make public spaces frictionless & gadgets ubiquitous, architects, town planners & tech designers leave us little opportunity to connect. These insidious forces are all around trying to design out random human encounters" https://t.co/0XKW4a0m4x

What does #citizenship mean?
Surely not being part of some phoney club.
For @citizen_network it means working together with others to face our shared challenges. It is only by acting as citizens that we can solve the great crises of our times.
