ALT A graphic that says "Unlocking more organising power in the housing movement - We're doing research to explore what information, that we don't currently have access to, could help the housing movement to unlock even more organising power. As a community tech coop, we'll be using this research to figure out if we can use digital approaches to make that information more accessible to the housing movement (but we know digital is not always the answer!) As part of the research we're inviting you to take part in a paid workshop alongside other activists and organisers. Find out more and sign up at bit.ly/h0using"

Our neighbourhoods are a fundamental unit of change we must to unlock the potential of, without which we render ourselves unable to meet the challenges of this century. They are also where our collective agency + ability to organise is rooted, which carries this Portrait forward.
i miss the good old days when the snow on roof game was about guessing which neighbour was growing weed in their attic not who is living in freezing uninsulated homes in a -5 winter during a cost of living crisis
