From civicintelligence

Why am I interested in Civic Intelligence?

  • Firstly as a future buisness owner, I want to know the best means to interact with my community, not just occupy it. It is important to me that I have a relationship with the people that I come to support and that come to support me
  • Secondly, I find it important as an individual to do what I can to educate and expand myself so that I can be of use to my community.


What do I want to accomplish in this program?

  • I want to learn what civic intelligence is, and I want to know how to teach others about it.

What things might I want to pursue with the game project?

  • Our group is developing a game that allows players to take on the roll of other members of their community.
