==About==
 
==About==
Global Melt is a workshop for members and leaders of global peer-driven movements to explore what their movements have in common, share what they have learned, and discuss solutions and ideas for their respective communities.
 
  
The workshop aims to gather, for the first time for this purpose, community organizers from Creative Commons, Wikimedia, and Mozilla, as well as staff, contributors, and researchers from similar organizations and projects.  
+
'''Global Melt - best practices in community leadership for global peer-driven movements.'''
  
Our immediate goal is to troubleshoot one concrete issue that is common to all participating organizations. We're starting small and prototyping the workshop format, but hopefully this meeting will plant seeds for further collaboration.

Participants are looking to develop tools that makes their work more efficient, more effective, and more impacting. Rather than building resources in isolation or continually investing in event strategies from scratch, we can gain more by pooling resources and ideas.
  
== Location ==

'''Possible shared resources include:'''
Berlin, Germany. Venue to be determined. Accommodation organized by participants.
+
* '''Local planner handbook''' - How can we communicate best practices to better inform and inspire local organizers?
 +
* '''Event calendars''' - How can we coordinate calendars of events from our organizations and community members?
 +
* '''Event and agenda formats''' - How can we learn about other event formats and adapt them to our purposes?
 +
* '''Facilitation practices''' - How can we grow the network of experienced, collaborative facilitators?
 +
* '''Documentation and communication platforms''' - What tools and methods are effective for documenting and promoting events?
 +
* '''Contact database''' - How can we map and connect community members and contributors across projects? 
 +
* '''Evaluation of venues, vendors, and public partners''' - How can we collect organizational and logistical experiences from hosting events?
 +
* '''Event funding sources or templates''' - How can we generate resources to help local organizers bootstrap their events?

About

Global Melt - best practices in community leadership for global peer-driven movements.

Goals and Outcomes

Global Melt will be the beginning of more deliberate inter-organizational collaboration, of shared action plans, and shared resources. Our immediate goal is to troubleshoot one concrete issue that is common to all participating organizations. We will conclude the workshop with a deeper understanding of running local, community-organized events that contribute to organizational goals in meaningful and sustainable ways.

Participants are looking to develop tools that makes their work more efficient, more effective, and more impacting. Rather than building resources in isolation or continually investing in event strategies from scratch, we can gain more by pooling resources and ideas.

Possible shared resources include:

  • Local planner handbook - How can we communicate best practices to better inform and inspire local organizers?
  • Event calendars - How can we coordinate calendars of events from our organizations and community members?
  • Event and agenda formats - How can we learn about other event formats and adapt them to our purposes?
  • Facilitation practices - How can we grow the network of experienced, collaborative facilitators?
  • Documentation and communication platforms - What tools and methods are effective for documenting and promoting events?
  • Contact database - How can we map and connect community members and contributors across projects?
  • Evaluation of venues, vendors, and public partners - How can we collect organizational and logistical experiences from hosting events?
  • Event funding sources or templates - How can we generate resources to help local organizers bootstrap their events?
