Spring has sprung π
Hi friends! Spring has arrived here in Aotearoa and it is gorgeous! Weβve got a lot of juicy stories to share this month:
For the past few weeks Alanna, Mix and Derek have been prototyping the future in an abandoned French castle. They've been teaching the crew over there about collaboration under pressure. Hereβs Mix demonstrating How to use your hands as the ultimate communication tool.
Now that spring is rolling in, we're poking our heads up like daffodils and looking ahead to a sunny future. Last week we held an excellent strategy-crafting session as a team, which you can read about here. We've been thinking about how the new Loomio fits in with the wider ecosystem of collaboration tools:
And hereβs a couple of stories from further afield:
- Mike O'Keeffe writes about the potential for Loomio to be used in collaborative bird identification, which is traditionally a highly solitary pursuit.
- ABC News recently screened this incredible story (video + transcript) about the young radicals in Spain who occupied city squares in 2011 and have now made their way into the city halls: Yes We Can!
Loomio has been a small but significant part of this new political moment in Spain. It's so inspiring to see friends of ours taking the energy of the streets and using it to revitalise the democratic institutions in that country.
Thatβs it for another issue of Loomio News, have a great week!
β€ much love from Rich
on behalf of the whole Loomio whΔnau
