But we?ve > been thinking hard here at ?OKI? (meaning ?Open Knowledge International?, > the informal name for the organisation that supports Local Groups and > Working Groups, and the rest of the network) and it really came down to > asking ourselves ?how can we best support our groups around the world?? > > Point 1: representing an international network <https://okfn.org/network/> > > Towards the end of last year, Rufus asked the question ?where should the > next OKFestival be held?? and members of the community on the OKFN-Discuss > mailing list <https://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/okfn-discuss> > responded, as well as leaders of Working Groups and Local Groups who were > specifically invited to share thoughts (see here for the original message > <https://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/okfn-discuss/2014-October/010627.html> > and search the archives <https://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/okfn-discuss/> > for responses). A theme appeared in the answers: people don?t want another > European event, unless other parts of the world are being seriously > considered for future events. That means we can?t go ahead with ?business > as usual?, but need to rethink how we do things for our next event. > > It?s clear that, while the organisation seeks to support a global network > of people passionate about open knowledge, historically we haven?t been > very good at extending in-person support beyond Europe, despite the growing > representation of areas of the globe through Local Groups, projects and > staff hires. The School of Data <http://schoolofdata.org/> has been a > brilliant flagship for reaching beyond Europe, with Partnership for Open > Data <https://okfn.org/projects/partnership-for-open-data/> doing > excellent > work in broadening awareness and access of work already happening in the > Global South, but generally the overall organisation?s efforts in running > in-person events have been in Berlin, with the occasional foray into > countries such as Switzerland, Finland and the UK (see our events page > <https://okfn.org/get-involved/events/> for more information). We want > that > to change, and are committed to exploring how we can enable that to happen > for future events. > > Point 2: supporting the international network <https://okfn.org/network/> > > Open Knowledge has arranged a fair few gatherings over the years, and > enjoyed the partnerships with the Finnish and Swiss Chapters in running the > 2012 and 2013 events respectively as well as liaising with the German > Chapter over several years, but generally there hasn?t been much room for > supporting events around the community network beyond some promotion (such > as here <http://okfncommunity.tumblr.com/>, here > < > http://blog.okfn.org/2014/12/10/a-round-up-of-open-knowledge-community-events-around-the-world/ > > > and here <https://twitter.com/okfn>). Here at ?OKI? we do our best to > empower others to lead, and it?s pretty hard to lead when someone else > takes all the attention! So, rather than effectively asking our Local > Groups and Working Groups to compete with us if they want their own events > (going up against Open Knowledge the organisation for scheduling, attendees > and sponsorship), we want to step aside and encourage others to facilitate > significant events that attract people from around the world to attend > where they are located. > > Furthermore, this organisation has its own agenda, goals, strategy and > vision - it clearly won?t be exactly the same as groups in the Africa, the > Americas, Antarctica, Asia, Australia and indeed the rest of Europe! Open > Knowledge ?International? doesn?t claim to represent the UK, we just happen > to be (mostly) UK-based; however we recognise that being primarily in the > UK brings bias and assumptions, and we need the network?s help to ensure > other agendas and priorities are given centre-stage. Moving to the > side-lines, to allow others to step in with their plans, is the right thing > for this time - and, very excitingly, other groups are already starting to > do just that. > > Summary: > > While the organisation bounces enthusiastically from one big international > event in one year to the next, we haven?t stopped to address how better to > reflect our growing global network. We?d like to do that - but that means > putting other things to one side; that is why we?re not running a big > flagship event this year. We?re stopping, breathing, surveying the scenery > and thinking about what Open Knowledge should be representing through its > events and in-person hands-on activities. We?re already in touch with some > of our amazing Local Groups, thinking about how they want to convene the > network in areas local to them, and looking to see how we can best support > from afar rather than assuming control. At present we?re considering our > options in terms of how to investigate support structures for the Local > Groups and opportunities for outside Europe in 2016 - be assured we'll be > asking you all for your input. > > We?re excited about what the year ahead will bring! > > What events can we look forward to instead? > > Open Knowledge continues to support events throughout the Open movement, > both remote (such as Open Data Day <http://opendataday.org/>) and in > person, and are excited to be looking into supporting events from around > the Open Knowledge community network in 2015. Various projects have > geographic focus - such as Partnership for Open Data > <https://okfn.org/projects/partnership-for-open-data/>, and FCO Macedonia > < > http://blog.okfn.org/2014/09/18/launching-a-new-collaboration-in-macedonia-with-metamorphosis-and-the-uk-foreign-commonwealth-office/ > > > - and of course the organisation will support events through the projects? > endeavours in those areas, too.
