OpenCon community calls give a chance for you to learn what's happening in open research and education around the world, share what you're doing and find collaborators and opportunities. 

On our first call of the year, we wanted to give space and time to the OpenCon community to reflect on their wins (and loses) in 2017 and share their goals and hopes for their open work in 2018. In sharing, we hope to give a moment to reflect, re-energize, and recommit ourselves to our goals personally and as a community. If you don’t have any goals yet, this is the perfect opportunity to come up with one or two (remember, keep them small, the year will fly by!)

Call Agenda

You can find all the proposed agendas and minutes from the community calls in one place, right here. The best way to share this link is with: http://bit.ly/OpenConCommunityCalls

What to expect

Community calls are always friendly, and we love new faces. The more you participate, the more you'll get out of it! No doubt there will be a lot of this too.
