Into action

Printed from: https://finalhbks.asgoodasready.com/the-urban-handbook/into-action/

This is a chapter of ideas on raising awareness and getting people involved, but without expecting or needing any long-term commitment either to a site, or by a group of people. These activities have value in themselves, but may also lead on, as in many of the projects described, to formation of a group with long-term objectives.
