And they’re having an event next week

========

OSNCamp is the gathering for all those interested in openness and knowledge sharing for a “just sustainability”. It is also the first gathering of the Open Sustainability Network.

What’s it about?

Thousands of organizations and millions of people are currently working to effectively tackle a set of profound global challenges through the creation, adoption and commercialization of sustainable approaches and clean technologies. Our efforts are fragmented. It is time to promote a culture of working together while maintaining our own special niches by leveraging shared and openly licensed solutions.

Join us for the first Open Sustainability Network unconference as we explore free content and knowledge sharing in sustainability, international development, appropriate technology and solutions to poverty.
