Hi everyone,

I am asked for my first Open Space! By a group of parents who are
homeschooling their children and want to form as an association.
They already planned the meeting for the 10th of January. The duration
for the planned event is 3h30 and there will be a shared meal before it.
It really seems shortto me for an Open Space.

There will be around 40 adults and 30 children. The children will be
taken care of by some adults, but some of them may also take part to the
event. It would be great :)

We had no preparation meeting so on as I was just contacted but they
already sent me by email some of the subjects they would like to
discuss. Even if I know that in OST subjects are not planned in advance,
I share them with you as a way to determine if OST can be a good thing
for this group of people  :

  -  Aims and objectives of the non-profit we could create.
-  What are the resources we want to give ourselves (time, energy, money) ?
-  What are our resources for the long term?
-  How to build a sustainable association or group that does not depend
on one or two persons?
-  The creation and role a committee could have in the non profit
- Would we like to merge or collaborate with the Homeschool Association
of Switzerland?    Pros, cons, how?
-  Next steps
-  Articles of the non-profit
- What is the aim of the non profit? Create activities? Support people
in their choice? To be known?

I have also understood that the situation is tense, because some cantons
in Switzerland are going towards forbiding Homeschooling.

As it would be my first Open Space, any advice is welcome. I am
especially wondering if Open Space is a first good step in that case and
what can be realistically achieved in 3h30 by a group of people that
mostly don't know each other and would like to have some consensual
concrete next steps at the end of the afternoon.

Any advice welcome, even if it is to say : please do something else :)

Thanks!

Béa
