Community Tech is technology built with, by and for communities, that is locally accountable and creates local value.

Promising Trouble and Power to Change are building a community of practice for the community tech sector. We imagine the community of practice to be for anyone who is interested in exploring how technology can benefit their community.

You might be an individual, not for profit business, community group or a potential partner organisation, researcher or freelance practitioner.

Your community might be place based or be built around a shared experience, interest or need. You might be very experienced or not experienced at all, but you are curious to find out more about community tech.

Join Rachel Coldicutt, Promising Trouble Director, and Roseanna Dias, Promising Trouble Inclusion Research Producer, to hear more about our plans and how to get involved.

After this Lunchtime Talk, please join us at Knowle West Media Centre to celebrate the launch of the community of practice. Book your ticket here. 



Join us online on YouTube Live, or in the building on Friday 19th May 2023 at 1pm for the talk and to take part in the Q and A discussion afterwards. 

The Pervasive Media Studio is a partnership between the Watershed, University of the West of England and University of Bristol. The lunchtime talks are partly supported by MyWorld, a project led by the University of Bristol to support creative industries in the region. Watershed is supported by Arts Council England.
