A starter for everyone. Die deutsche Version findest du hier
We are happy to organize the osce days this year. This being the first post, we thought it may be necessary to give you all a little heads up. If you feel reminded of the first post in “Berlin”: Yes, I copied the text, but copying is not wrong, it’s what resource sharing is here for.
What the hack?
As you may have heard, the osce days are a hackaton. A hackaton is a workshop where you work on specific goals rather than getting educated. At osce, we call those workshops challenges, because it sounds fun and reminds us that we need to challenge society to make circular economy happen. The Viennese osce days will take part on 12th and 13th of June. Look at the Challenge List to find a challenge you’d like to work on.
Submit my own challenge
You looked at the Challenge List but didn’t find anything you want to work on? Submit your own Challenge. Just start a new Topic and name it [CHALLENGE] Your Challenge Name. Please don’t forget to bring your own tools. If you don’t have them, use the Zeug / Stuff Topic.
I just wanna talk
Talking is great and there will be opportunity to do so at the OSCE days. If you have something to say in regards to circular economy, be it waste management, open source life cycle management or anything that comes to your mind, let us know.
