Happy New Year folks...
Any exciting plans for 2024

[Nathan Coyle FRSA @nathan_coyle]

My first book is out next year, I'm so excited! It looks at how we can make #OpenData more accessible to the #thirdsector. Taking into account over ten years of research, hands-on work with everyone from grassroots NGOs to central governments! #OpenDataForEverybody

Class act, how sad. #RIPBenjaminZephaniah

[Aston Villa @AVFCOfficial]

Everyone at Aston Villa is deeply saddened by news of the passing of legendary writer and poet, Benjamin Zephaniah.

Named as one of Britain's top 50 post-war writers in 2008, Benjamin was a lifelong Aston Villa fan and had served as an ambassador for the @AVFCFoundation.

The thoughts and condolences of all at the club are with his family and friends at this time.

🚨With @sandwellcouncil, we ran workshops in all 6 towns plus a regional hackathon where we codesigned a downloadable training resource for orgs in #TheBlackCountry to combat #HateCrime. Access the open-source #BostinTogether toolkit here: https://t.co/iM1wzCh6s6 #EndHateCrime

@JustPatricia9 u ok hun?

[Nathan Coyle FRSA @nathan_coyle]

How can #PeaceTech learn from #CivicTech in regard to community building?

In my new article for @opengovpart, I explore exactly that.

I mention some fantastic projects such as @OpenDataKosovo, @ushahidi , @AccountLab, and @okfde.

The arts offer creative spaces for #transitionaljustice in #southsudan but are under-recognized by TJ practitioners, argues @SayravdB in our newest blog post. https://t.co/5BZwnnXcSv

There is no question that #AI has amazing potential, it's something we ponder a lot, from doing the leg work to make data clearer and enabling activists to drive change

But, an AI-generated Liam Gallagher? I don't think the world is ready for that

it's society's problem that our places are not accessible to everybody, not those with disabilities. Join our #RethinkRePlace volunteer team, especially welcome applicants from the #neurodiversity community. More info: https://t.co/XGU308oIw2 #place

Nathan took part in the excellent @GoodSynergy podcast, he talked about our #TacticalUrbanism and reflected on our recent #HateCrime outreach work in the West Midlands.

It's the perfect lunchtime listen.

Thanks again to all involved!

🇦🇹🇸🇸 | Great to attend @CivilWarPaths highly insightful workshop on #TransitionalJustice in #SouthSudan at @ACP_Schlaining while in Vienna last week.

Thanks to @SayravdB for sharing her mechanisms that are opportunities for research via arts & culture, deeply thought-provoking.
