Maker Verde is a research programme working with the
Downham Dividend Society
to provide localised employment through construction skills training and the
production of community assets. Our ten giding principles are:
• To localise training opportunities and mitigate the need to travel by motor
• Work towards fixing and making good London's (negeclected) councils estates
• To create healthy environments using reclaimed materials - ie felled timber
• Work at achieving better environmental standards for the construction industry
• To add value to labour and craft
• Work towards more localised modes of production and oppurtunity
• To make epic sawn wood products (not burn) from felled urban timber
• Work on ownership and pride of place - This world is yours - own it!
• To lobby for access to all, everywhere, especially nice green spaces
• Work with local borough councils to help them fulfill their obligations
