We talked about where Op3n Meetups fit in the engagement efforts
Hi @Tiago and @Franca, this is for you and for those who couldn’t make it to the call:
With @Alberto @Costantino we got sidetracked from the actual discussions around Meetups Adventure due to some different opinions we have about how meetups would support the bigger community building efforts. In the OpenCare research project we have an engagement strategy to converge project activities by ER, WeMake and all partners into stories and conversations between participants which would take place on this platform. Those will become research data and will result in a report for our funder, the European Commission.
Now: we have a basic Engagement strategy based on our project proposal. You can read it here (it’s very short and mainly to guide partners efforts). Where we are having difficulties is in implementing it - due to some technicalities with the funder and our own challenges to coordinate all efforts and support the OpenCare conversation, which is the researh engine of the entire project (we are mandated to drive “collective intelligence” around community driven care solutions). A lot of this is detailed issues… not sure if this is the place for what could also be boring stuff for people not involved in the operational side of opencare.
What would be great as an actionable for me is to convene key stories to be told in the community calls and report on those with minimum effort online.
We need to make it easier and cheap for people to share stories.
So how about in the next community call we start with ourselves? Tiago, for you this is a quick way of fixing the time gap of your being away from ER
