| - | ====== The Networked City exploration ====== | + | ====== Networked City and Connecting Londoners ====== |
| - | Networked City is an exploration into the role of network thinking and digital technology in reframing London's civil society and supporting social action. | + | Our home page is [here](https://www.networkedcity.london/start) |
| - | + | ||
| - | It was started by David Wilcox and Drew Mackie on behalf of the London Voluntary Service Council, and is now being led by Matt Scott with David and Drew and a group formed following a launch event on January 10 2017. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | The exploration aims to: | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | * complement and support [The Way Ahead initiative](http://thewayahead.london) on London's civil society launched by London Funders, LVSVC and Greater London Volunteering. | + | |
| - | * contribute ideas to the [City Hall strategy for civil society](http://www.connectinglondoners.blog/2017/-city-hall-is-commissioning-work-to-develop-a-london) | + | |
| - | * support London community groups and networks that are exploring ways to collaborate [under the banner of Our Way Ahead](http://www.connectinglondoners.blog/content/all/?q=%23ourwayahead). | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | Networked City led to development of a group of projects committed to Connecting Londoners. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | ## Connecting Londoners | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | We are developing Connecting Londoners as an initiative for anyone interested in how people, projects and organisations can cooperate and collaborate better for social good. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | We are exploring three linked challenges as services and funding are cut, and the ways that people communicate are changing rapidly: | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | * how will Londoners in future find out where to get help for themselves or their families in times of need; find local activities that interest them; share or sell items or services; find opportunities to volunteer; campaign for or against change in their community … and organise projects? | + | |
| - | * how can individuals, groups and organisations make use of the Internet - together with other methods - to cooperate and collaborate more effectively? | + | |
| - | * how can we ensure that those most in need, and most vulnerable, are not excluded by these changes? | + | |
