🇲🇰🇽🇰 | Check out Nathan's article @theRSAorg on what we found out when we worked with the brilliant @OpenDataKosovo & @fmeta on open data outreach and NGOs.
Could data help us fight the infodemic around #Covid19?

🇽🇰🇲🇰 | We recently did a series of workshops with @OpenDataKosovo & @fmeta on improving #OpenData takeup from NGOs in the region.
But in an area highly skeptical of #Covid19, could open data be an aid?
Here's @nathan_coyle's article for @theRSAorg

NU is 5 this month!
To celebrate, we will be launching a new volunteer-led research platform looking at #GovData policy & encouraging NGOs to use it.
Called #GovDataLabs, It will have its own platform, but for now, here's something to wet your whistle!

#TacticalUrbanism is a practice where we can change public places for little or no money, a community-driven #placemaking.
No experience in #UrbanPlanning needed, just a passion for where you live!
Learn how #Sandwell CSOs can use it in this free event!

We wrote an article for @localgoveditors on how our free toolkit can support #LocalGov with #TacticalUrbanism.
The sense of community is one of the little positives from #Covid19, let's use that for good!

Do we activity confuse ourselves in regards to #digitalization & communities? Our @nathan_coyle seems to think so.
How can we really get #PublicSector on board with #OpenData & #SmartCities, maybe we need to consider our language 💬

Nath, who designed the iSandwell program recently spoke at #TEDxWolverhampton talking about putting communities at the heart of #SmartCity & #OpenData agendas.
"We need less silicon valley & more Sandwell valley" Yes, that's him cringing on stage 😂
