A makerspace for and from the neighboorhood

How do you work on neighborhood improvement from within the neighborhood? How do you involve the local community in a successful way? Bouwkeet, the makerspace of Bospolder-Tussendijken, is working with the neighborhood on broadening the world of the neighboorhood’s youth, empowering them and advancing their 21st century skills. On behalf of Ravenkop, Rayhaneh Farhoudi acted as interim director of Bouwkeet for six months, focusing among other things on perpetuating the foundation’s first successes, further developing processes, organization and culture and offering a glimpse into the foundation’s future.
