What might you convene/invite/host here?
This space is open to OST practitioners who would like to provide a local meeting, practice group or community organization the most basic support for working in ongoing, online open space.
If this OpenSpaceWorldNET space had existed one year ago, the proceedings and followup for the following events and projects could have been posted here, as ongoing, living examples of os in action:
- imagine chicago's ten-year global conf in os
- imagine nepal's one-day foundational os meeting
- milwaukee makes place 3-evening openspace event
- christine kent's upstart australian women's organization
- alan silverman's project to transform US democratic party
- ashoka institute for community practice, bowen island BC
- sheila isakson's women in leadership summit
- american montessori society regional conference in os
- ted ernst's chicago humanist work
- some of john engle's work?
- peggy holman's journalism work?
- spiritedwork upstarts in other cities?
- world social forum or chicago social forum stuff?
- training and practice group notes and actions around the world
Some of the above now live at GlobalChicago:Incubator. Others could still be created here.
