Birds Of A Feather Workshops
Birds of a feather flock together, and this is exactly what these consensus workshops are meant to do. Come and offer your own idea or sign up to attend another’s idea.
This fluid workshop format is inspired by open space technology, and is being used for “unconferences” around the world. The content of these workshops will be driven and created by the participants.
Things to Do
