Hi all,, Sharing this for those in the Bay Area. Please come!
'TOGETHER: A co-presence for good' camp<https://copresence4good.eventbrite.com/> ' is taking place at the Institute for the Future in Palo Alto on 9/28. It's part of the 'Future for Good' program at the Institute. *Goal*: Bring together human rights workers, futures thinkers, activists, researchers, techies and storytellers to design, hack, plan for immersive experience and co-presence approaches for next-generation human rights activism<http://www.iftf.org/future-now/article-detail/next-gen-witnessing-how-can-we-enhance-human-rights-activism-using-co-presence-for-good/>. How do we use technologies and tactics of experiential, real-time, synchronous witnessing and engagement more effectively for human rights activism? How do we use the sense and experience of being together with other people in a remote location to drive concrete, productive actions and understanding across borders and timezones?
