After conversation with Noemi today some ideas
-
We run a number of local informal gatherings where we present findings from case studies so far and document the discussions in which participants validate findings, comparing with their own experiences and projects. Preparation: Skype call during which we craft summary in 6 bullet points, agreement with co-working/hacker space and flyer/FB event header with invitation. Tweets and FB updates in local language
-
We co-host a writer’s workshop for crafting stories/case studies to post in which participants craft an engaging case study about their peers work and produce a short video interview. Preparations involved: Read how the futuremakers Nepal team structured the Writer’s workshop and replicate it in your city in collaboration with local journalists/citizen journalism orgs: https://edgeryders.eu/en/future-makers-nepal/writers-workshop-narratives-of-the-quake. What comes out of it? A post and video like this one for each participant to be included in the book and disseminated widely through the twitterstorm (see below).

We run a twitterstorm together with project protagonists, case study and analysis contributors who have participated in making the book. People who participate (contribute interviews, case studies, analysis and art work) are highlighted in the twitterstorm giving them exposure towards directly and indirectly interested parties in over 30 countries (last time we did this we reached over 120,000 people): https://edgeryders.eu/en/making-lote3/why-be-proud-of-the-twitterstorm-where-does-it-all-go.
