[open-development] Open Development Camp 2013 on November 13 - get your tickets!

[Kersti Wissenbach]

Dear open development community,


Only *11 days* before the *Connected Development Festival* takes place in
The Hague.

*This year Open Development Camp
<http://www.opendevelopmentcamp.org/#odc-header> has joined forces with
Partos Innovation Festival <http://partos.nl/innovatie> and Border Session
<http://www.bordersessions.org/>s <http://bordersessions.org> to be part of
a full week of great events around open development, data, and new dynamics
in civil society space.*
*Together with Partos, we present you the Connected Development Festival in
‘Theater aan het Spui’ in The Hague.*

We've been working hard to put together a great program, and we'd like to
share a few highlights with you:

   - *Merici Vinton* will talk about her experience of affecting
   large-scale change by compounding small changes. As an MBA graduate with a
   passion for change, Merici <https://about.me/merici>sees technology as a
   means of solving problems. Working as part of the Obama New Media Team in
   2008, she moved to Washington DC to bridge the gap between government and
   people. Merici also led the launch of consumerfinance.gov, co-founded
   Ada’s list and her work has featured in Businessweek, The New York Times,
   the LA Times and on CNN.


   - *Ruud Koornstra* - The Netherlands Chamber of Commerce initiated the
   ‘Innovatiekabinet’, of which Ruud Koornstra
   <http://www.ruudkoornstra.nl/over-mij/> is the Prime Minister of
   Solutions. Although identifying solutions may be a bit too ambitious,
   Koornstra will talk about the refugee crisis, which will affect all of us.
   Koornstra, a former TV producer and now sustainable entrepreneur, will talk
   passionately about disruptive transitions like the refugee crisis – as he
   often does at regional conferences for entrepreneurs.


   - *Innovative Collaborations -* *"If you do what you did, you get what
   you got."*
   Sometimes your existing network or partners cannot offer the best
   solutions to the challenges at hand, and it's time to look for new,
   innovative collaborations. Based on experiences from The Netherlands Red
   Cross <http://rodekruis.nl>,The Art of Impact <http://theartofimpact.nl>
   and LustLab <http://lustlab.net/> we'll explore how these new
   collaborations might work. In an interactive session we will discuss what
   makes these new collaborations different from business-as-usual and
   pinpoint what they require from the different participants, and try to
   tackle the challenges these new initiatives encounter.


   - *Development Data: One Step Beyond *In the last five years much
   emphasis has been put on the publication of open development data. How
   useful has this effort been? What have we learned so far? and Which
   insights did we gain? Theo van de Sande (Transparency & Open Data
   <https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/opendata/ontwikkelingssamenwerking>, The
   Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs), Leonardo Pérez-Aranda (Oxfam
   Intermón, producers of Realidad Ayuda <http://realidadayuda.org/>) and
   Rolf Kleef (Open for Change <http://openforchange.info>) will share
   their insights on this subject and together we will explore what the future
   has store for open development data.
