Organizers' Collaborative

The tenth annual will be held over October 16 and 17, 2009 at Northeastern University. Visit the website for conference details and to plug in!

Now in its tenth year, the Grassroots Use of Technology Conference has been bringing organizers to build social change and to ensure that they have the appropriate tech tools to make that happen. A broad coalition of non-profits, academic, and community activist organizations have come together with the Organizers' Collaborative to make this happen. Now in it's 10th year, the conference takes new and emerging technology an applies it to the needs of today:

• there is deep economic and social pain across our communities
• young and old yearn for opportunities and dream of a new green economy
• in big cities and small towns organizers and community folk battle to keep people in their homes
• around the globe development and security challenges test peacemakers and social changemakers
• everywhere activists are grasping at the new tech tools to get their work done

The Grassroots Use of Technology Conference brings all these issues and technologies together in both practical, hands-on and visionary ways!
