This document discusses how an organization called "hive" works to bring together other organizations and youth to collaborate on projects. It provides information on hive's current work facilitating meetings and funding opportunities. The document then discusses hive's plans to streamline processes, facilitate more connections between groups, and scale initiatives citywide and globally. Examples of current and planned projects are mentioned. The rest of the document involves activities for mapping areas of impact, brainstorming ideas and solutions, and developing project concepts to illustrate problems, solutions, and how they would work.
