I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital.

You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library.

You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library.

You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library.

You want sourced info? Library.

We've been exploring relational infrastructure through a community resilience lens in Millgrove, Vic.

I know MosaicLab do work around citizenry & democracy. DemocracyCo too.

Regen Melbourne have a Participatory Melbourne thread too.

Any specifics you're looking for?

Thanks Kim! Stoked to have the money on the ground to start investing in resilience-building community infrastructure.

There's lots of talk of fire refuge, but I think we'll need extreme and/or sustained heat refugia too.
