FUCKUP NIGHT FOR #GIVINGTUESDAY hosted by AzuKo & Impact Hub King’s Cross

SOCIAL IMPACT DESIGNERS WHO’VE FAILED AND THRIVED


What’s it all about? A mash-up of two global campaigns... for one night only! FUCKUP NIGHTS

#GIVINGTUESDAY

@FuckupNight / @FUN_LDN

@givingtuesdayuk

Fuckup Nights are events to talk about professional failure.

#GivingTuesday is the global day of giving.

The concept evolved in Mexico City in 2012, a mezcal-infused conversation in Oaxaca between five friends who wanted to break free from the stigmas surrounding ‘failure’.

After the madness of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday is an opportunity to come together to show the world why it’s good to give.

Each speaker is given 7 minutes and 10 images. There’s a Q&A session, as well as time for networking (beers).

The simple idea is to encourage people, charities and businesses to donate time, money or their voice to help a good cause.


What’s it in aid of? 100% of the money raised tonight is going to AzuKo’s current project delivering improved sanitation and drainage to a slum in Bangladesh.

“I want to practice photojournalism not only as a profession, but as a social service itself.”

Why social impact design? We’ve heard from the startup world - they’re not afraid to take the stage. We believe it’s time our sector stands up and shares...
