We believe that each community has many valuable assets, for example people
and spaces. However, many assets may not be visible to the majority of
community members. This collaborative project works with
communities to uncover hidden assets and unlock their potential.
Creative hands-on approaches commonly used in co-design and
co-production practices are employed to attract a wide range of people
in order to discover assets in an engaging way and put them into good
use.
