Workshop: Your Neighbourhood: A New Social Media Network

By Bruno Duarte

Brussels: 25 January 2017

Our world is changing. We lead busy lives. Work keeps us busy even at home. The news on TV and the internet takes us out to see the world without leaving our couches. Yet there’s so much around us that we may be missing: how can we connect with those that live around us, our neighbours?

In this workshop, we shall find problems and conceive solutions for the oldest social media of humankind: our own neighbourhood community. We’ll find out what we must do to communicate more and better with our neighbours, why we should do so and what will change if we start talking more with those who live around us.

Participants of this workshop benefit from time together reflecting on how to improve their daily lives and learning a European method of problem solving that is applied consistently to developing communities around the world.
