#CoLiving

Co-living is about living well with housemates, intergenerational homes and in intentional communities like eco-villages. Basically anything beyond the modernist nuclear family setup.

Does anyone have any resources around co-living from getting started zines to resources on setting up good housemates decision making practices.

Increasingly folks around me are exploring different configurations for living together and it raises questions around how to do this well.

Keen for resources!!!

As we head into an Australian Federal Election year, with the world on fire & political institutions crumbling, I thought I’d reshare this piece I wrote late last year. Partly as a reminder to myself.

We can build our new world in the compost of the old. Let’s do it.

Lots to consider here. How to combine spokescouncil with projects structure with worker coop structure? Anyone on social.coop have experience using this approach?

How to Run Collaborative Projects That Don't Fall Prey to Bureaucracy

Today, when people call something "bureaucratic," they usually mean that in a negative sense, but bureaucracy didn't always have this negative connotation. About 100 years ago when many professional bureaucracies were being built, they were seen as a means of bringing quality control, predictability, and integrity to administrations. But bureaucracy has taken on a life of its own since its inception, and now is often viewed as self-perpetuating itself in thoroughly mediocre and banal ways.
