January 20th is, for many, a normal day.

However, we must acknowledge that a year ago today, the US saw a shift in power which has (unfortunately) rippled across the globe.

A year on, we think it's fair to say that, whilst we are still horrified by the decisions, language, and actions of the US administration (and beyond), the initial hopelessness is beginning to dissipate.

We're fighting back, finding new ways to come together, and staying strong.

Building a community is about more than just tech. It takes effort.

Many of us like to imagine that community building is easy, that if you build it people will come. But this isn't true. Even 'organic' community building is tied together by shared behaviours and interests.

So, how do we build meaningful community? Our friends at CSIDNet published a brilliant piece on their approach that we think everyone should be learning from.
