interesting that so much of the discussion @StrongerThings yesterday was about the need to change culture and models of institutions so that they better enable and support community and citizen leadership. Relevant to our work on community centres @raynefoundation.bsky.social

Our first keynote of the day comes from @georgiagould.bsky.social‬ on all things public service reform, communities and place.

“For too long the operating model of the state has been a pyramid with government at the top and citizens at the bottom.”
