Groups

Large communities are often made up of smaller communities.

An association may have several chapters. A school may contain departments, classes, and clubs. A federation may bring together independent member organisations.

Putting everyone into one giant group can make those relationships harder to understand.

Clozeu allows groups to connect with other groups, creating a group of groups.

Each constituent group can retain its own members, activities, collections, and identity while still being part of something larger.

A local chapter, for example, can remain focused on its own members while belonging to a national association. A project team can operate within a wider department. Several organisations can participate in a federation without losing their individual identity.

This also helps preserve context. Not everything that matters to one subgroup needs to involve everyone in the wider organisation.

The larger structure provides connection and continuity. The smaller groups preserve their own relevance and identity.

Instead of flattening an organisation into one large membership list, Clozeu can reflect the way larger communities are often formed in real life: groups connected to other groups.
