Good idea, Harrison - the Cornell course on adult education and community
development used to
include introductions to various kinds of participatory program planning,
including Future Searches,
but no one ever mentioned Open Space or World Cafe or any of the other
more relatively recent
processes. The person who taught that course has now moved on.
HOwever: would anyone be interested in joining me in proposing a session
on Open Space for the Adult
Education Association's national conference next year? this gathering is
for academics mostly, with
a few academically-oriented practitioners. Don't know where it's taking
place but I'll look it up.

Carla -- you also give all those academic types a small push. You might
ask
why it is that the Academic Community has so far managed to ignore OS?
Here
is something that is 20 years old with 60,000+ applications in 100
Countries. This is the perfect opportunity for a little PhD research.
These
folks could become famous!

Subject: great succes for Open Space in the Netherlands
Hi all
Last week we had a meeting with about 20 OD consultants in the
Netherlands.
Some who lecture about OD at University, some who do research on OD and
some
who work as OD consultants (like me). I was invited to write an article
an
how Open Space works and why it works according to my experinces with
Open
Space. I used many of the things I have read over the years on the list!
The article is going to be published in juni in one of our more prestige
journals (for the dutch: Management en Organisatie). And there will be a
national congres on Open Space and other inteventions who really are
interactive (appreciative inquiry, Future Search, and much much more)
I was very honoured not only to be asked but that Open Space is goging to
be
even more 'hot' in the Netherlands.
So if there are some reflections on the the next two items, it would help
me
very much to rewrite some parts of the article:
- why does Open Space work? (those academic boys and girls over ?here
want
to know something about theoretical background and start looking very
upset
as I told them that it just works).
- as Harrison wrote in his book Open Space; exapanding our now, Open
Space
has very ancient backgrounds (meeting in a cirkel, breathing, starting en
ending 'time' and son on). What is more to say about these ancient ways
of
meeting?
Anything or everything is welcome
warm regards
Carla
