I’ve finally made up my mind! No more procrastinating, no more excuses – I am starting PROJECT: CREATING PARADISE. The first thing I want to do is create a forum (a great suggestion by Dr Peter Shapley) which brings together academics, tenant group reps and civil servants/politicians then we it would be possible to get views/ideas etc discussed and debated. To do it properly, however, would cost a few thousand so I remembered the quote “A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step”.
I am, therefore, asking RAs in each area to think about this idea and how we can start locally with the aim of having a conference next year to discuss our findings. I would like to involve schools too so that youngsters can participate in creating their future world.
- What would you like to do to create “Paradise” in your area?
- How do you picture it?
- How would people treat each other?
- How would you encourage them to do so?
There are so many questions and I’m sure you could think of many more so start with the questions and then think about the answers and START doing something to make these changes … Let me know how you get on, please.
