We're sponsoring the Troublemakers At Work conference on 5 October in Manchester — troublemakersat.work — and we'd encourage other movement infrastructure orgs to do the same. The first conference in 2023 was a welcome addition to the labour movement: a democratic, participatory forum for rank and file workers to build relationships and discuss the nitty gritty of building power in their workplaces and between them. As a new initiative not incubated by a union or party they rely on movement generosity: https://lnkd.in/ePBgf4hc While we're there we'll be showing folk mapped.tools, a new tool we're building with organisers to map out member lists, make strategy and get people acting offline and collectively. Shoot jan@commonknowledge.coop a quick message if you're keen to meet and chat while he's there on our behalf 🖤

How might we learn from the garden — a space of complex, biodiverse entanglements and transformations — as we cultivate places and communities that nourish resilience? For issue 10 of Robida Magazine, I invited Gemma Copeland (Common Knowledge) and LinYee Yuan (Field Meridians, MOLD) to weave a conversational carrier bag to feel out our ideas on gardening as a design method. Rather than an ending, this dialogue is a beginning — an invitation to collectively grow a discourse and create spaces where experiences, practices, and approaches to tending and exchange can collide, cross-pollinate, and contradict one another. Issue 10 — Correspondences — is out now: https://lnkd.in/epF_cPN8 Robida is a collective that works at the intersection of written and spoken words and spatial practices developed in relation to the village of Topolò/Topolove, where the collective is based. #situatedpublishing #situatedness #design #gardening
