A Wisdom Academy, CoreChange News and 10,000 Jobs in the Urban Core

Some of the specific initiatives prototyped in the design phase of the Cincinnati CoreChange summit included a wisdom academy promoting a new kind of learning, an alternative media for the city and a framework for creating 10,000 jobs in the urban core annually.

That's some pretty exciting and solid stuff.

We look forward to unpacking those and other prototypes in upcoming coverage.

We also plan to feature what some of the "strangers" in the event took away for their own cities.

In the meantime, check out our latest story capturing the high points of some participants, as well as a blog on what this summit signals for all communities going forward.

As always, we welcome comments, story leads, and suggestions for content we might want to curate including videos and blogs.

A discussion is also underway on co-creating a strengths-based news network for the city linked to this CoreChange work. If you're interested in learning more about this conversation, please contact Peter Pula of Axiom News.

Best regards,

Michelle
