Community Asset Mapping Workshop: Creating Kingston's Donut Economics Portrait & Green Map

Join us for an collaborative session to map Kingston's community assets and co-create a visual representation of our local economy through the lens of Doughnut Economics principles.

Who should attend:

• Community members who have attended previous sessions or have deep knowledge of local assets, resources, and initiatives
• Individuals with design or mapping skills to help visualize our findings
• Anyone passionate about creating accessible, community-driven resources that showcase Kingston's strengths

What we'll do:

• Share and document existing community assets (organizations, businesses, resources, natural spaces, cultural sites)
• Collaboratively design a Green Map that highlights these assets for community use
• Explore how these assets contribute to a thriving local economy within planetary boundaries
• Create visual tools that make this information accessible and useful for all residents

Why attend:

• Contribute your local knowledge to create a shared resource
• Help design tools that will benefit the entire Kingston community
• Connect with others passionate about sustainable, community-led development
• Learn about Doughnut Economics principles and how they apply to our local context

This is not an introductory session - we're building on existing work and knowledge, so please only join if you have relevant experience or skills to contribute.

Let's work together to map Kingston's strengths and create visual tools that help our community thrive!
