Thank you @LaskaNenova & the @BGBEACTIVE team! Not only was it a great forum on all things “creative bureaucracy” in Bulgaria, but also what a feat to pull this off just before the Christmas break 👏🏼
We once again thank @CreatBureauFest crew and especially @RobynBennett for the support in organizing this event.

We’re looking for a Global Director of Storytelling and Communications - someone who understands the role that stories play in shifting systems.
This person can be based anywhere in the world.
A super exciting opportunity (even if I say so myself…!) app.beapplied.com/apply/wuks…

Incredibly, unbelievably excited that @moral_imagining is launching an Imagination Activism programme today with @CamdenCouncil. We are training council officers in #Camden in the skills of collective imagination and horizontal leadership to become agents of change of Camden.

“There’s a need to improve urban equity, but there’s a gap in our tools & shared knowledge for doing so. Our new Accelerating City Equity Project aims to change that”
Vital work (& great workshop!) from @gsebag @annaabenhaim @IS_UrbanHealth – at Pontevedra, Spain
Fantastic conversations about equity referring to this diagram. How are you addressing equity in your work? @IS_UrbanHealth #placemakingweekeurope
