[Sam Gregory]

Hi all,,

Sharing this for those in the Bay Area. Please come!

'TOGETHER: A co-presence for good' camp<https://copresence4good.eventbrite.com/>
'  is taking place at the Institute for the Future in Palo Alto on 9/28.
It's part of the 'Future for Good' program at the Institute.

*Goal*: Bring together human rights workers, futures thinkers, activists,
researchers, techies and storytellers to design, hack, plan for immersive
experience and co-presence approaches for next-generation human rights
activism<http://www.iftf.org/future-now/article-detail/next-gen-witnessing-how-can-we-enhance-human-rights-activism-using-co-presence-for-good/>.
How do we use technologies and tactics of experiential, real-time,
synchronous witnessing and engagement more effectively for human rights
activism? How do we use the sense and experience of being together with
other people in a remote location to drive concrete, productive actions and
understanding across borders and timezones?

Thanks!
