  • Event lasts 63 days 3 hours

Welcome to the Cornerstone Indicators Community of Practice Workshops

The workshop series will be hosted by Green Futures Network at the University of Exeter in collaboration with Dark Matter Labs. Over the course of eight 2-hour workshops we will introduce the Cornerstone Indicators and the framework that sits behind them. Working through the open source toolkit together, we will support participants to create a set of Cornerstone Indicators for the online Community of Practice. The idea is that after running through the process together, participants will then move on to create indicators for their own personal communities of place or purpose.


Frequently asked questions

Do I need to register for each workshop separately?

You only need to register once. We will send you calendar invites and joining links for the full series (8 workshops) once you have registered here.

Is the idea that participants run a simultaneous process in their community?

You are welcome to do this if you have time and confidence. The motivation behind the Community of Practice model is to work through the process together first, and then potentially transition to a peer-support space for those who want to run it themselves in their own community.

Would it be necessary to have a community to join?
