NNK Activity: Door Knocking

What you'll need

  • Community Network Field Book
  • Pencils
  • Kit Guide Zine Handout

What to do

  1. Get a clipboard--or not--and copy out "Door Knocking Handouts" from this zine.
  2. Adapt the questions* and opening script
  3. Now (the hard part)...go around your apartment building, block, and/or neighbourhood, and knock on your neighbours' doors!
  4. Record the contact info for people interested in joining a network or sharing internet access!

Questions

About internet access:

  1. How do you feel about the current pricing of high-speed internet?
  2. Would you be interested in reducing the cost by sharing internet access with nearby neighbours?

About neighbour networks:

  1. Would you be interested in joining a locally-run and maintained neighbourhood network to access the internet?
  2. If there were a local network, are there any online services (e.g. event listings?) or local activities you could imagine you'd wanting to use or know about?

*Questions adapted from ACORN Canada’s Internet for All survey: https://www.acorncanada.org/internet-all-survey

Additional Ideas

  • Set up (or join) the mailing list or SMS/chat/messenger group for your block or apartment. This doesn't have to be just for sharing internet! Options are free services and involved services that many people use already.
