A global meet up of makers working on the reality of residencies across the world. The conversation will delve deeper into the future of Maker changes and question supporting policies, government and donor involvement, project topics across 6 practical residencies kicking-off across Europe in June with 6 African makers and open the floor to the participants to discuss, plan and explore.
Makers from Nigeria, Tanzania, Rwanda, Egypt and Cameroon will co-host a global meetup to share their stories as they prepare to journey to 6 European makerspaces. The conversation will delve deeper into the reality of global exchanges and residencies alongside carving out supporting mechanisms and the future of the maker movement.
