collaborative efforts

Studying collaboration for my master’s project is like studying the world.

Life is collaborative.

I’ve decided to focus on 3 areas of collaboration that I personally find interesting and important.

“meetings”

Those boring events that you constantly roll your eyes at, doodle during, feel unproductive at the end and the momemt you walk out you forget exactly what happened

innovative idea generation

Brainstorming, though a group activity, is not actually collaborative. You don’t actually encourage the diverse range of information to build off each other.

collaborative ownership and responsibility

Community spaces are often dirty, go unused or are not actually productive in anyway. Community collapses around shared space because people don’t share well and contribute often.

I want to tackle collaboration in these areas because it is important to me for people to get together, get something done. I care about my communities and I think everyone should.
