Grassroots bootcamp/Topics

This is a very late-night braindump of some of the things we could/should be discussing this week... ChristophD 03:42, 7 June 2008 (EDT)

The biggest challenge for both OLPC and olpc grassroot organizations is communication.

Other than that there are 4 big themes within the olpc efforts at the moment:

• community engagement: e.g. event organization
• learning: e.g. content creation
• deployment: e.g. logistics
• (un-)networking: e.g. caching

Grassroot and similar organizations can actively contribute in all of these areas.

Food for thought:

• community manager
• financial support for grassroots: e.g. travel scholarships
• global grassroots conference
• better collaboration and communication among grassroots
• a million other things... ;-)
