<DIV></DIV>Hey niko...<BR><BR>Right...it was Luca we were with, sorry to confuse
you two. I remember that I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you
yet. <BR><BR>Thanks for your observations on opening space. We're
working afair amount with youth and kids too, and I can't emphasize enough the
importance of getting the theme right. Open Space is fabulous when it
addresses a real and pressing need. Youth in open space are great testers
of whether you have the initial conditions right. In a small space as
well, you will discover quite quickly how pressing the need is. <BR><BR>For me,
need is the seed of invitation. No need, no invitation. No
invitation, no space to open.<BR><BR>Give my hellos to Daniel and Luca.
<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR><BR>Chris<BR><BR>

<DIV>My observations on Open space would be...<BR> <BR>PEople who show up
need to be fully participating, I have experienced it when people are not and
i find the meeting is dead and going no where.<BR> <BR>We have opened
space for kids between the ages of 10 and 18 years for a Creative Space
we owned in NZ and have found it very difficult at times but have
kept doing it resulting in them or (some) of them finally getting
it which when they do understand it is brilliant... <BR> <BR>I was part
of opening space for about 200 people which were part of a goverment
organisation and thought it was great.<BR>I enjoy it a lot when people break
off into several different spaces and you can drift from one interesting
conversation to another.<BR> <BR>Also I know that My father and Chris
Corrigan Are very a like in nature which is no surprise, it is like they speak
the same language..<BR> <BR>thank you
