RISC has been working with the October Gallery "the first London gallery to exhibit cutting-edge contemporary art from all cultures around the planet"
Local 4 Global has initiated these London-based projects towards building a learning community and proactive strategic partnerships. Each has a small budget and the emphasis is on engagement in complex interconnections rather than subject matter. The organisations do not necessarily have the global dimension in the school curriculum as a singular purpose but they demonstrate a facility to further this specific agenda. The work of Local 4 Global is part-funded by DFID under what the department calls ‘enabling effective support’.
Projects will be developed further by March 2008. Opportunities for new projects will be available from April 2009. An expression of interest, and comments on the process, from London-based organisations working locally are welcome at any time.
Madeleine Kennedy-Macfoy is providing mentoring, monitoring and evaluation support for this work. Formerly, Alberta Stevens, of Southern Narrative, contributed to this MM&E process.
