Digital Volunteerism and Multi-Sector Collaboration
Melanie Gorka, Heather Leson, and Brian Chick will give an introduction to volunteer technical communities who have partnered with international NGO's, the UN, the World Bank and crisis response organizations and have leveraged the power of crowd-sourcing in times of need.
Thousands of digital volunteers have been utilized after disasters in Haiti and Chile, and more recently in New Zealand and Japan. Participants collaborate within a number of volunteer technical communities including: CrisisCommons (CrisisCamp), Crisismappers, Ushahidi and Random Hacks of Kindness (RHoK). We will present stories of global crowdsourcing, mapping and hackathons.
People and communities innovate for crisis response and global development through technology tools, expertise and problem solving. The various groups collaborate in an open environment to aggregate crisis data, map situational awareness, develop prototype tools, run hackathons for social good and train people on how to use technology tools in new and inspiring ways.. Each of us build partnerships with government organizations on how to use crowdsourcing and digital volunteerism in emergency preparedness.
This panel will discuss the future of digital volunteerism in Canada and around the world and the way in which these tools can be used for social good in collaboration with local, federal and provincial governments.

When citizens get involved : the power of online communities and crowdsourcingJorieke Vyncke
Thanks to our growing connectivity, it is now easier than ever for citizens to collectively contribute to a project or cause. From microtasking, over collective intelligence, to implicit crowdsourcing; the now widely available technologies and worldwide social networks have allowed for individuals to contribute their own knowledge and skills to a larger whole. But what is crowdsourcing exactly? What drives people to do it? And how is this collaboration exactly coordinated? During this talk all these points will be addressed, a lot of examples will be given, and of course we’ll discuss possible ways that crowdsourcing can be used in development and humanitarian aid.

"Transmedia & Advertising: What Advertisers, Marketers, Brands & Businesses Can Learn from Transmedia Storytelling" - presentation from "The Story To Sell", a conference on transmedia storytelling held in Amsterdam on 11 June 2009. Presentation by Ivan Askwith, Senior Content Strategist at Big Spaceship
Transmedia storytelling is the intentional integration of technology platforms and audience collaboration into a coordinated story. It creates an immersive participatory story experience which expands reach, increases persuasion and buy-in and builds an adaptable structure for a more sustainable campaign.
This was a presentation that I gave back in April. Since then we have done more advanced Transmedia work and I hope to share that case study soon when we get the full results. Sorry it took so long to upload this.
We are an NGO created in 2001 with the purpose of creating social and economic value to networks of social initiatives.
Mission:
Generate social and economical value for networks of social initiatives
Vision:
Unleash the potential
of social networks to make changes that benefit everyone.
From Collaborative Economy to Collaborative OrganizationDavid Weingartner
What does it need to become a collaborative organization?
Slides of the talk given at CN Wintercongress of Detecon Consulting in February 2015.
After an introduction to the Collaborative Economy and its relation to the term "Sharing Economy", the presentation shows reasons for its rapid growth: Businesses as platforms. What are the elements of a platform? Why does it allow for rapid growth and value creation?
Taking this as a basis, we translated the concept to the organizational level using OuiShare as an example. What does it need to become a truly collaborative organization? What is the culture and tools needed? What tools and organizations inspired OuiShare?
