A short online event where you can quickly catch up on what is happening in the community, tweet support or ask any questions. It's like a press conference, but with everyone talking to everyone.
This is an opportunity to discover the amazing projects that your peers are involved in, from Helliniko Metropolitan Community Clinic dispensing free health care to the many Greeks who, having lost their job, also lost their access to public health care; to the Urban Shepherd of Stockholm, inducing a neighborhood to come together through husbandry; to the Cytostatic Network where unsung heroes provided cancer patients with life-saving drugs unavailable in Romania; to the OpenInsulin project reshaping the drug market for diabetes patients. And so many others!
If you are part of OPENandChange, or wish to join; or simply have lost track of the work and could use a quick summary… this is a unique opportunity!Instructions for joining the fun (and getting lot of new friends and followers).
How to participate:
- On Tuesday 20th September at 16:50 PM CET/ 10:50 EST go to Twitter.
- Open a window with a search for #OPENandChange. While you are at it, follow @edgeryders.
- At 17:00 CET/11:00 ESTsharp @edgeryders will start tweeting the relevant content, links to the most relevant projects etc.
- Retweet them! Tweets will be rotated at least 3-4 times: don't be afraid to retweet every iteration. In Twitter this is not a violation of netiquette.
- Be creative! Retweets are good, but MT (Modify Tweet for those new to Twitter) are better! Make jokes, add your point of view, it's all good. The more you do so, the better.
- Don't stop at Twitter! If you like Facebook, by all means reshare links through your Facebook account. We will do the same.
