July 18-19, Global JAM on Online Communities for Social Innovation
You are invited to the first Global JAM on Online Communities for Social
Innovation, July 18-19. A JAM is an online discussion that is time
limited, asynchronous, moderated, and subsequently analyzed.
The goal of this event is to collectively identify technology
requirements for effective online communities to better support those
working in social change and innovation. The intention is to share what
we learn quickly and broadly.
Online communities are changing the work we do and how we do it. They
are creating new avenues for learning and innovating. They drive new
models of leadership.
Today's technologies while plentiful are not inventoried, and overall
not adequate for the needs of the social sector. The goal of this JAM
is to help the sector use online community tools more effectively and to
help technologists to build more appropriate tools. Through this
discussion we hope to create a shared vision of our collective future
for online communities for social change and innovation.
Participants will include leaders of nonprofit, NGO, public sector and
grantmaking organizations, researchers and academics, technologists, and
consultants from around the world. All use or plan to use online
communities for social innovation.
We hope you will join us in this important conversation. The "Price of
Admission" is completing the short survey at http://tinyurl.com/36cqk7
by July 15.
The JAM will be analyzed and synthesized in the form of a "white paper"
that you will have the opportunity to participate in writing. You will
receive a final copy, though we imagine it to be more of a living,
changing piece. The paper will list all the JAM participants (unless
you do not want to be identified).
You will have access to the JAM site, kpublic.net, shortly after you
have completed the survey. The JAM agenda, discussion topics and
structure, and other details can be found there.
The JAM is sponsored by the following Organizations: Knowledge in the
Public Interest, Impact Alliance, OneWorld, PACT Latin America, Kabissa,
Full Circle Associates, and The Learning Catalyst.
