The convener and organizer is [Gune Irekiaren Lagunak (Open Space Friends from
the Basque Country)](http://guneirekiarenlagunak.weebly.com/): a dedicated
group of professional facilitators and other people interested in Open Space.
We have been meeting and working with Open Space since 2010, convening local
OSonOS's and hosting an open space e-mail group with about 300 participants.
We are happy to reconnect and celebrate Open Space and life after two years of
uncertainty and disconnection! Aurrera GiGi Mundiala ;-)!
