Co-CreationLab - Summer School in Brazil
On 29. November we are going to Rio in Brazil to particpate in the summer school organised by the global network Pioneers of Change (www.pioneersofchange.net). The event bears the name Global Journey, and it invites practitioners from different countries to explore together. The focus this time would be on:
- sharing personal stories and journeys
- sharing collective journeys
- exploroing the possibilities and tools for sustainable initiatives/projects/work
Recently, we have become involved with the members of PoC in Copenhagen in organising an alternative climate event in 2009 when the Climate Change Summit is to take place in Denmark. Co-CreationLab is therefore bringing the ideas and questions from this forum to Brazil, in order to explore with others further possibilities and options and in order to gather knowledge, advice and contribution from other pioneers.

Henrik Vibskov co-oprates with Co-CreationLab
The progressive Danish designer Henrik Vibskov had decided to support the social innovative initiative of Co-CreationLab and the project Dreamers Inc. Henrik has therefore contributed by sposnoring clothes, sports clothes and accessories for the children in the Usa River Children's Centre in Tanzania as well as independent socially conscious Hip Hop artists in Arusha Tanzania (TruthGivezPower Crew).
Needless to say, his contribution was a refreshing and a welcome initiative, greatly appreciated by both the children , the artists and Co-CreationLab.
Clothes donations to Third World Countries mostly assume a charcter of collecting and giving away old, second hand clothes that people no longer use. We applaud Henrik's innovative initiative to contribute with brand new, designer clothes for the people involved in our project, as it provides a new and dignified way of global social engagement. He truly is an example for Danish artists and designers who wish to be socially active.
Henrik Vibskov has further decided to sponsor more clothes for the forthcoming trip Co-CreationLab is making to Brazil. The clothes will be given to children in an associate project (we will make regular updates from Brazil).
Once again - great thanks to Henrik Vibskov!
