We are proud to support the Common Space initiative of creating an open data infrastructure with an independent, high-resolution humanitarian satellite mission.

A dedicated humanitarian satellite would enable capacity building among humanitarian actors while providing researchers with a reliable foundation for predicting and analyzing future hazards.

#OpenData #CommonSpace

A periodic reminder that however cool they are, WE DO NOT NEED FLYING CARS.

We've previously sacrificed the #commonspace in front of our houses and businesses for the 'convenience' and promised 'freedom' of cars. See where that has left us!

Why would we willingly surrender the space, and air, above our heads to more vehicles!?

If you find yourself wondering about when we will *finally* get a #flyingcar, instead be grateful they've yet to arrive.

Colette Walker: A new approach to public infrastructure? Start by making buildings accessible

https://www.commonspace.scot/articles/12960/colette-walker-new-approach-public-infrastructure-start-making-buildings-accessible

"In conclusion I urge Scotland’s future SNIC to build indoor/outdoor spaces to be of high accessibility for all. This practice will benefit society and the economy; more users means more economic growth in our business.

Inclusion for all isn’t rocket science, it just takes a little consideration and respect. Let Scotland lead the way in accessibility for all."
