[liberationtech] Call for papers: re:publica-conference in Berlin

[Markus Beckedahl]

Hi,

this is a Call for Papers for our upcoming sixth re:publica-conference
in Berlin. The re:publica is a conference about blogs, social media and
the digital society and we cover many political and cultural aspects
which are debated on this mailinglist. It is organized by
netzpolitik.org and spreeblick.com which are two of the most-known blogs
in germany. We have some budget for travelcosts and accomodiation for
international people, so if you are interested to attend and do a talk,
just use our cfp-form.

best,
markus

Are you an activist, researcher, developer, teacher, or entrepreneur
working toward an open and fair digital society? You are ready for
action? Then you should be at re:publica 2012.

ACTION! The past years social media has become the vehicle for political
and social movements. Today, digitalisation is affecting all areas of
life, political, social and economic. It is time to review existing
concepts of business, finance, mobility, and resource distribution.
Following the DYI movement we aim to develop new models and ideas about
consumption and production. At this year’s re:publica, we invite you to
join us in re:thinking, re:designing and re:building today’s society.

WE HAVE: Germany’s largest and one of Europe’s most exiting conferences
with international speakers and over 3.000 visitors. 2012 re:publica
will take place from May 2nd to May 4th in a new, unique venue: the
STATION-Berlin. We offer space for action and a stage for your ideas.

YOU HAVE: A great idea, project or topic. We are looking for creative,
high-level talks, engaging discussions and hands-on workshops for our
2012 programme. If you wish to contribute and be part of re:publica then
please take part in our call for papers.

BY WHEN? The online template will be available for you until January
31st at this location.
