Agbogbloshie Makerspace Platform (AMP) Spacecraft is an alternative architecture for making. Small-scale, mobile, incremental, low-cost and open-source!

[&amp @qampnet]

The latest prototype of the Spacecraft includes an improved enclosing system (we also changed them side). Awesome team of welders! Come meet us and check it out tomorrow! Cc @dkoa @panurban @lowdesignoffice #microtecture #Africa #lowcost #opensource

In the US, people are retraining to become appliance repairers. (With the pandemic, demand for repairs has multiplied.) But there is a lack of vocational and training opportunities: https://t.co/WK73gixYwN

Repair jobs are green jobs, and an essential part of a green recovery.
