New platform launched to facilitate collaborative learning
Open Space will allow the housing sector to share existing examples of good practice as well as to test new ideas and find solutions to challenges.
As part of its ongoing work to support the housing sector to respond to the challenges caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the Social Housing Resilience Group, which is led by SFHA, has created an open access online platform to help organisations restart and re-design their services.
Open Space will allow the housing sector to share existing examples of good practice as well as to test new ideas and find solutions to challenges.
Open Space comprises three sections:
Current good practice: In this section, you will find examples of existing work that is currently being carried out. Areas of focus include allocating homes, tenant communication, dealing with anti-social behaviour, and environmental services.
You can also submit your own examples for this section.
New ideas: This section contains ideas or proposals that have not yet been fully explored.
Ideas submitted for this section will be reviewed by the Social Housing Resilience Group, and support will be provided to test and implement some of them.
Goals and challenges: This section provides examples of goals or challenges that require solutions.
If you already have an idea, or an example of existing good practice, that could help one of the goals or challenges, you can share them in this section.
Why should I get involved?
Open space aims to facilitate collaborative learning and problem solving by sharing existing examples of good practice, ideas, and solutions.
