- 4. What is Political Innovation? A series of practical events at which people with ideas on political innovations can meet up with technical experts, journalists, bloggers, politicos and others with an interest in politics and public affairs to grow and promote innovative projects
- 5. Want to do a session on the day? Firstly, throw your idea into our forum now to see if theres any interest? http://tinyurl.com/3azsop9 Come along on the day and pitch the idea to the crowd see how many people there are interested Attend, introduce, chair, and (ideally) blog your session afterwards
- 6. Sessions: guidance If you propose a session do please turn up to it (but see below) If a session does run can someone record it in some way to share later? Please link to anything you publish on Twitter using the #picamp hashtag. Include everyone (the law of two ears and one mouth). If you find yourself in a session, and youre not learning or sharing just leave and find somewhere where you can. (the law of two feet, and no- one will be offended.) If theres only two of you in a session and youre learning and sharing thats fine. (However many people are in a session is the right number.) Try to avoid being a seminar: The best sessions are the ones that spark ongoing action. Try and leave enough time at the end for summarising and organising this. Please avoid party-political soapboxing: There are few votes to be had here.
- 7. How are sessions scheduled? The opening session will allow everyone the opportunity to give a quick personal intro propose sessions that they want to host The rest is a bit of a scramble with post-it notes (pic courtesy of We Are Snook)
