Very happy to invite people to use our new desk in Scotland!

Green Map System's sponsorship of a desk at the POP shop provides a hugely helpful boost for our small co-work space. 🌍

"It can be hard to sustain a space like this, so this unique collaboration with Green Map System makes a real difference to us. We’ll be able to increase our connection to other communities by creating Green Maps and testing out new ways of working to support sustainable community development,” said Hannah Clinch, who manages the POP shop

📍 The Green Map desk is available by appointment. Contact us by email 👉 [email protected].

Great to see this new The Pop Shop post!

🌍 Green Mapmakers, we have a dedicated desk based here in Dunoon. Sponsored by New York-based Green Map System the desk at the POP shop is available to Green Mapmakers from the Dunoon region and to visitors with Green Map projects in their own communities.

The desk is available by appointment. Contact us by email 👉 [email protected].

Intrigued? Have a look at this Reuse, Repair and Care map which was set up to share information about reuse and repair services located in the Dunoon area. These vital services support a culture of care that benefits people, place and the planet. 🌱

THIS IS TERRIFIC!

“According to the Semeia, the work of making the Green Map has not been done for 20 years. In 2003 it served as the basis for the Master Plan. According to Secretary Giovani Mineti Fabricio, the Green Map is being redesigned to be used as an instrument of urban and environmental planning and a diagnostic tool through the vision of students.”
