Where Civic Punks Goes From Here

from Civic Punks · host Derek Alton

Civic Punks is starting to come into focus. In this short solo update, I’m back at Queen’s Park — where I filmed the original launch video — to share where the project is going next. Over the last few months, I’ve been travelling across East Asia and the Pacific, meeting people, recording conversations, going to events, and trying to understand what the future of government looks like from the ground. Somewhere along the way, the shape of Civic Punks started to get clearer. The core is still the same: exploring the future of government through the people trying to make it better. But the strategy is getting sharper. The podcast will go deeper with people and their stories. YouTube will focus on ideas, tensions, and field observations. Instagram will become more of a notebook from the road. The newsletter will connect the dots. And LinkedIn will become more of a conversation space. The goal is simple: more signal, less noise — and more content that feels human, useful, and actually worth spending time with. I’ve linked the draft content strategy in the show notes. It is still very much a working draft, and I’d love your thoughts. What would you actually listen to? Who should Civic Punks be paying attention to? Where does this community need more signal?
