With the permission of "Go Dundee", I reproduce below some detail about their upcoming event on 3rd December :
Just imagine...
What will Dundee look like in 2020? What will it feel like to be in the City - in your part of the City?
Imagine that Dundee has continued to flourish, has become a fantastic place to live across all parts of the city. What has enabled this? What stories would you tell about how we achieved this together? What has your part been? And what have others contributed?
That's what Dundee Wave of Change is all about. A two to three year project where people gather and creatively describe the story of Dundee's success in 2020 - and we want to engage as many people as possible in imagining this potential, in telling their stories ...
A Dundee Wave of Change - launch event Thursday 3rd December 3-5 pm
Go Dundee has been approached to gauge interest in a Dundee Wave of Change project. On 3rd December at 3-5 pm we will explore how to respond to this opportunity and begin the process of creative conversation. If you would like to take part and can spare a couple of hours on 3rd December, please send us an e-mail using the link below. We'll get back to you with more information - including details of the location - once we have an indication of the number of people wishing to attend.

We would like the widest possible range of people to come along to the Launch event for Dundee Wave of Change. People from all parts of the City, from different organisations, from all age ranges and from all of the diverse communities in the City. Can you click on the 'forward email' link below to forward this email to people you think may be interested and who can help us spread the word and widen the invitation?
Background
A Scottish Wave of Change follows on from the work of Scotland 2020 and Glasgow 2020 which Gerry Hassan led with the UK think tank Demos broke new ground in Scotland, the UK and internationally by developing innovative ways of imagining the future through stories and the concept of 'mass imagination'. The projects produced two books, numerous resources, skills and tools, and even, for Glasgow 2020, a music album.
One of the primary strands of A Scottish Wave of Change is to develop a series of conversations, discussions and events in a number of places across the country over the course of the project. This will allow for long-term relationships to be built and different groups of people and ways of working to be developed.
Dundee Wave of Change would become a distinct strand of work as part of the wider Scottish Wave of Change with a variety of activities including story telling and imagining the future. It could create its own Dundee-specific resources and publications while also being part of a unique Scottish and international project.
