After cooperating with Generation Europa, in 2015 at the Global Youth Exchange for the first time, we decided together to start to externalize our ideas from the format of the traditional non-formal-education frame in which it was evolving.

With Fabian (@orangutanklaus), @manncpt, Angeliki, @wolfgangsieberth and some other contributors, we decided to make the Idea Machine a reality. We wrote the Idea Factory as a transitional step towards the realization of the Idea Machine. Then, realizing than even being endorsed by the City of Vienna and by the MA18, the City Planning Administration and be in the list to receive a 2000sq meters building to make the project. We could not wait and we needed to find a solution to start while continuing to write the next chapters and plans. We jumped on prototyping with what we have. So we offered some organizations and business to host our workshops in exchange of some services realized with the group.

That is how we started to cooperate further with the Nuu Gallery as well as with the Prosa School project in Vienna who supported our initiative from the beginning.

Global School cooperating at Prosa keeping the space clean and managing the community kitchen as well as the IT courses in exchange of their hosting.

Co-designing and Cooperating with the Integral Designer - Oliver Roman and his social business Bauen mit Bäumen - Building with Trees.

This gave concrete projects to the participants while contributing effectively to the improvement of the organisations partners offering the @globalschool resources and competences to complete the multi sided work environment we are aiming to provide to the participants. I'll come back longer on all theses stories on next posts, as these adventures have been really passionating! ;-)

Below, some of the branded visuals Tamas and Akos made to contribute to the quality experience of the Co-space community in Vienna.

Here one of the great creation Akos realized as a sticker for the transparent glassdoor in which everyone were hurting themselves. I adapted it little bit to fit to the #creative-commons. =)
