We just had our first meeting of the Open Social Incubator cohort today. So inspiring to meet these extraordinary people from around the world. I can't wait for the communities they build here.
Apply here by October 4Do the online communities and groups that you participate in use digital tools that truly serve your values? Do you want to break free
@CaitlinWaddick > the Open Social Incubator project is an example of how people can build technical skills to create communities in online spaces that are democratically-run, open social networks, not corporate spaces that are run by autocrats
What a fantastic project! Is there a handbook we could look at if we wanted to replicate this in Aotearoa? I'm thinking particularly of reaching out to tangata whenua (indigenous people) to help them communicate autonomously online.
@strypey @CaitlinWaddick We'll publish outcomes from it probably next summer! And in the new year we'll open up an online forum with the cohort. Get on the @medlab newsletter for updates.
