Hand Made is a beautiful collaborative book with 26 innovative perspectives and projects from around the world, over 230 pages, about new ways of creating connection and community. The projects have been carefully selected because they have all been developed with new thinking and methodologies and involve Learning, Sharing or Making.

The projects generally break through normal dynamics by integrating design thinking, systems thinking, new understanding of networks and human functioning ... with an inspiring dose of imagination.

The aim of the book is to highlight some truly original and inspiring projects to spread ideas and encourage doing things in new ways ... Encourage people just to try things in fact, to experiment, to work around the system and, together with other people, make communities they want to live in.
