[OSList] A VIRTUAL OPEN SPACE EXPERIMENT

Tue Mar 24 10:22:04 PDT 2020

Just to get an impression of him and all his contact details, look here 
in Spain where he moved to from another continent
> https://www.openspaceworldmap.org/worker/juan-luis-walker

There you can also see his email, phone, address in Valencia just in 
case you live or happen to be in his neighborhood just 500m from the 
Mediterranean Sea and websites...

Greetings from Berlin

> A huge leap, a bold move. Later today and this week, we are launching 
> the Virtual Agora Gardens as part of the World Happiness Fest 
> activities. It will be a self-organizing conversational space using the 
> combined technologies of QiQo Chat (where you can choose your garden and 
> topic) and Zoom (where you then engage directly in face-to-face 
> conversations on topics of your choice).  A unique feature of this 
> Virtual Agora (gathering) is that people will be hosting each other. No 
> leaders, facilitators or official hosts. Self-organizing like in nature!//
> 
> //
> 
> You can check out the space and concept here; 
> https://worldhappinessfest.qiqochat.com/cafe//
> 
> //
> 
> All are warmly invited to join this experiment, lending your passion and 
> skills as hosts and facilitators, helping us informally open and hold 
> space for others and with others.  It is free and lasts all week. You 
> can drop in anytime and stay as long as you want. //
> 
> //
> 
> As the planning for the World Happiness Fest was underway, there was no 
> way to predict the alarming and unfolding circumstances of the 
> coronavirus.  The Global Happiness Event is in its third year and has 
> been increasing exponentially. Over the past weeks and month, the 
> planning team, organizers and world hosts have been adjusting, creating 
> and responding with such sensitivity, generosity and heart.
> 
> //
> 
> With this latest Virtual Garden initiative, it’s also been a race 
> against the clock. What was intended to be a small Open Space 
> experiment, complementing the many activities (presentations, live 
> events, and more) of the World Happiness Fest is now potentially a place 
> and space that will fill an urgent and important need for many. //

> 
> The World Happiness Fest Week (March 16th - 22nd) 
> https://www.happinessfest.world/en/ is launching today from Madrid.  All 
> in-person events and presentations _now _“without audience” will be 
> recorded and live streamed free. Many of the in-person Agoras 
> (gatherings) – about 80 around the world have been cancelled or scaled 
> down which will certainly shift the attention to virtual. Many of our 
> colleagues in the Open Space community were/are hosting Agoras where 
> they live: in Canada, Nashville, Spain, India and other places. //
> 
> //
> 
> *Lucas Cioffi*, founder of QiQo Chat and a great friend of Open Space, 
> has worked tirelessly to develop this virtual garden concept with input 
> from our friends and colleagues here and there, along the way.

> 
> *Luis Gallardo*, Founder and President of Happiness, also an ardent 
> supporter of Open Space, came up with the idea of having a virtual 
> garden setting for this conversational intiative. Luis was at World Open 
> Space in October and he, with core members of his planning team, also 
> attended the Peace and High Performance gathering in New York. //
> 
> //
> 
> This is an excerpt of Luis’ message to a global community a few days ago 
> as their team continued to plan, adjust and respond to the needs and 
> current happenings.*It is in the spirit of his heartfelt words that we

> /Given the almost widespread alarm that is causing the spread of 
> Coronavirus throughout the world, we want to take a very special role, a 
> role of hope in view of fear, and the remembering that we are all

> This is the time when we need positive, calm and aware leadership. It is 
> now when we need to talk about stress, before trauma and after, the 
> impact of negative news on our behavior, the crippling effects of fear 
> and anxiety and its consequences. This is the time to contrast the 
> facts, to learn from the past and to build a future full of hope, 
> because we know that isolation, loneliness and depression are 
> devastating to human beings.
> 
> We have decided to take advantage of this alarm situation and the 
> celebration of The World Happiness Fest between March 16 and 22, 2020 to 
> set an example and remain the forum we are. We are a forum for 
> reflection on integral human development, on new economic and 
> development models, on peaceful coexistence and the flourishing of all; 
> family, work, school and community.
> 
> We will keep the agenda online and by video streaming giving free access 
> to anyone who wants to access the contents and wisdom of the experts of 
> our community, and we will enable our online platform so that there is
