At the #RGSIBG24 plenary we learned about contemporary geographers using maps to communicate #socialissues and how #SubjectiveMapping challenges the singular view of traditional #mapping @RGS_IBG

This paper offers a reflection on the design ethos and process behind the production of the Subjective Atlas of Palestine.

Prototype version of the Subjective Atlas of Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦 being read in Sarajevo by @paullowe | Looking forward to the next workshop in Vitez organised with @PCRCBiH – the cover image is a series of socks knitted by the grandmother of a participant from Srebrenica

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

The workshop in Vitez is funded by @_ISRF – previous workshops in Sarajevo and Srebrenica were funded by @nuact_NCL | Hopefully we receive further funding to run workshops to activate the atlas in Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦 and to create an exhibition that will tour the country

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

Thank you to @_ISRF for funding this workshop in Vitez, BiH 🇧🇦 and thank you to @PCRCBiH for arranging it and hosting – the Subjective Atlas of Bosnia and Herzegovina aims to provide a joyful document of personal perspectives, life and culture across BiH created by young people

For some, maps serve as a streamlined tool to help one get from point A to point B. But for the #SubjectiveAtlas team, the act of cartography represents a complex journey informed by history, and the personal relationships we have.

Excited to be part of this initiative to build new, beautiful, grounded, and personal maps of local Bosnian landscapes created by citizens of BiH to create a ‘Subjective Atlas of Bosnia and Herzegovina’ | @nuact_NCL @NCL_Geography

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

This is becoming a thing! It was 10 years ago when I first approached Subjective Editions about the idea of making a new subjective atlas of Bosnia and Herzegovina and it’s finally happening! Thanks to the @PCRCBiH for being a brilliant local partner who are taking it forward!

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

We hope that this will be a useful and beautiful document that will last for years beyond the moment of publication and will be available in PDF and at bookshops and museums in BiH – it’s a thing made by people who are from BiH or are interns with @PCRCBiH

[Post-Conflict Research Center (PCRC) @PCRCBiH]

🗺Introduction to #SubjectiveAtlasEditions to which our #BalkanDiskurs youth will contribute with their own experience of 🇧🇦. During the workshop, they'll question the very act of cartography to create more multi-vocal and pluri-diverse representations of a place.

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

So happy with the first day of map and flag making! Thanks to the @PCRCBiH for bringing this engaged and critical group together! The ‘Subjective Atlas of Bosnia and Herzegovina’ 🇧🇦 is becoming a real thing!

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

The methodology of making a subjective atlas is participatory, encouraging people to map their landscapes from their own perspective – it begins with a map of the state and an alternative flag before becoming a narrative contribution that is a small story of a place and a person

[Post-Conflict Research Center (PCRC) @PCRCBiH]

Day Two of @BalkanDiskurs training had numerous interesting activities. The journalistic training looked at preparing article proposals and conducting interviews. The #SubjectiveAtlas group then drew up their interpretations of the 🇧🇦flag and underwent a mapping-exercise.

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

The alternative flag making for the ‘Subjective Atlas of Bosnia and Herzegovina’ – placed alongside each other and put into digital form as they will look in the published book it creates a collective expression of place! Thanks again @PCRCBiH for bringing together this group!

[James Riding @_James_Riding]

We worked today with another group of participants and they picked up on the greenness of Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦 – here are the alternative flags produced by both groups and it’s interesting to see them side by side and the variety yet coherence as a set!
