The Open Makerspace Toolkit (OMT) provides key stakeholders in the African and European maker movements with materials and resources for professional development in support of setting up, managing, equiping and sustaining different types of open, collaborative and innovative makerspaces. The Toolkit consists of five main parts: 1) creating a makerspace; 2) making activities; 3) good practices; 4) digital communication; and 5) business models.
