Hello, Everyone! Welcome back to Brym - it’s Season 2, Episode 11! This has been such an amazing season so far with people sharing their stories from all over the world! If you want to take a look back at all the amazing work being done, check it out here! We will be producing 1-2 more stories in Season 2 before regrouping over the Summer to think about the next evolution of our Storytelling Platform. Hint: Video? Short Films? Documentaries? We’ll see :) Thank you for being here and a part of this exciting ride that’s just getting started!

After almost two seasons of collecting stories from around the world, Food, Water, and Energy have emerged as constant points of community focus. Motifs and trends throughout these stories inform what Brym is working towards and how, especially as we move towards translating stories into projects through our upcoming Innovation Lab launching this Summer!

Today, we dig into on of those focus areas: the world of Community Energy with two amazing leaders in the space, Crystal Huang (who writes her story below) and Julius Mujuni!! There are a ton of great resources below shared by Crystal if your community is thinking about building decentralized systems of energy! That’s a huge focus of Brym as well, so feel free to reach out with any questions moving forward!

If you’re not already subscribed, we’d love to have you along for the journey!!
