Participative Change Conference Coming Up in March
The Nexus for Change conference is coming up March 22 and 23, 2007 at Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, OH. The conference will focus on leveraging the power of more than 60 approaches being used to transform organizations and communities as they tackle 21st Century challenges. These approaches are broadly referred to as large-group methods/interventions, whole-system change, or large-scale change.
The aims of the conference are to:
* Address critical needs at local and global levels
* Expand the reach of the methods around the world
* Design significant field research projects
* Invent new tools, techniques and applications
* Incorporate technology to leverage existing methods
* Connect with others to form joint ventures
* Innovate educational programs and courses
* Craft a common language
* Articulate a platform for this body of work
