How to propose something for the program
A good proposal will include 1) a description of your work 2) reflections around your experiences working in community, as well as 3) a burning question or challenge you would like to explore during the event.
To submit a proposal you are invited to write a post with some initial thoughts and then publish it in our shared workspace. Here is a brief you are required to answer*. Once your proposal is posted, other community members will leave thoughtful comments to help refine it. The Program team will contact you for next steps within two weeks from the time of posting.
* On Briefs: When we launched the OpenCare conversations last year we had several questions we asked the community - all the stories contribute to finding answers to those questions. Here are the briefs (accessible from the main menu - OpenCare stories).
Ongoing Submissions
Together we are building a unique program in which every talk, workshop and co-design session is an excellent, generative experience for everyone involved. You can help by reading and leaving thoughtful comments on the proposals below…

Process for Working Together
All background information and status of proposals is collected by the team in a shared spreadsheet.
Proposals are turned into the official program when:
-
Team members agree with the proponents on the final title, summary, format, scheduling, hi res photos etc. Proponents are signed up to share #OpenVillage consistently on their social media.
-
Team members set up individual event pages on edgeryders.eu containing the agreed details
-
An official Program page is updated with links to individual sessions.
*** Travel support is made available on a case by case basis for most active contributors, both session leaders and OpenVillage participants in general.
Schedule
Work in progress. Approved sessions are added by the program team on a rolling basis.
