For 2021 we have worked hard on defining a priority plan, which can be found here. It is now time to put this in motion! Join us during this kick-off sprint! We are dedicating June 7th to the official start of this priority plan, during which we invite all people that are interested to join us. Whether you have been part of Metabolism of Cities/Islands for long, or you are new to this, everyone is welcome. We are curating a set of tasks that allow anyone, independent from background and experience, to contribute. So if you are keen to help out with our data hub priority plan, please join us in this work sprint!

We are having a group meeting from 16.00-17.00 CEST (convert here) so if you can, join that meeting. Sign up to the sprint to receive the video link. The sprint will last the whole day, so you are also welcome to add comments to existing tasks, assign some to yourself, and get working on things at any time in the day, as you see fit!

If you want to start getting involved, this will be a perfect opportunity!
