Here are the ideas we originally brainstormed on for plenary or themed panels at DP13. These are being saved to mine for other meetings.

PLACE:


COLLABORATION: This panel could focus organizations or projects using technology platforms or social advocacy methods to collaborate for access to open data for the public good. (AKA Erin's attempt at an all-local panel.)
