Dear OS friends!
At the WOSonOS in Berlin we decided to create a brochure to celebrate the
legacy of WOSonOS.
We need your help!
If you have organized a WOSonOS in the past, please help us collect some
highlights and pictures from the event.
If you’re willing to help us write or edit some text for the brochure,
please also fill in the questionnaire.
Fill in this super short questionnaire https://forms.gle/2Ys47cusgvgdWuJq5
by Friday 13th September.
Our intention is to finalize the brochure before the WOSonOS in Istanbul,
so it can be shared with all participants and everyone on this list. Here
are some more details about the brochure
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1leZhVHN-52ksMGcFJd2ljqC6Z99A_vAigDoIJYcYCv4/edit?usp=sharing
and you are invited to leave comments in the brief.
We also plan to create it in a way that future WOSonOS can easily be added
to the brochure each year.
Greetings from
Maryana, Anna Caroline
Dear all,
thank you for the first 4 responses to the questionnaire.
Fill in this super short questionnaire https://forms.gle/2Ys47cusgvgdWuJq5
by Friday 13th September - if you have been a sponsor or organizing team
for a WOSonOS in the past.
We want to create a booklet with the history and it would be super sad if
your WOSonOS was not presented there.
THANK YOU!

Dear Anna Caroline,
for an overview of all 29 OSonOS and then WOSonOS events have a look here
I was involved in the 8th (2000) and the 18th (2010) in Berlin.
The 8th was the first WOSonOS event outside of North America (USA and
Canada).
For the 8th there are photos
For the 18th there are the proceedings
and Action Planning/Next Steps
and Commemorative Book (published by you and Jo Töpfer)
and an entry for the WOSonOS in 2010 in the worldscape showing the
number of participants (170), location, invitation in Portuguese, French
and English. And pictures
of the sponsors, Chief Housing Officer, 17 Co-Invitors, and 4 Team
Members...
Wishing you a great time at this year's WOSonOS in Istanbul, I heard
that more than 50 folks have signed up already.
Greetings from Berlin

Anna…here is the text of the story of the origins of the carved talking stick that I sent to Thomas in 2022:
From the beginning of Open Space, the practice in the closing circle was to pass a talking stick in the check out. This is a practice that exists in many many cultures, but here in the territories of the coastal First Nations in North America, that practice is a high art, and in fact is the core practice of the governance of these Nations.
In the Big Houses of the west coast where potlatch and other governance ceremonies take place the talking stick, or the speaker’s staff. is an important chiefly possession and represents the authority of a Chief. In these ceremonies, which have a high degree of formal protocol, the sticks are not shared around the circle. A Chief owns their own talking stick and uses it to assert their authority when they are speaking. These talking sticks are usually 1.75 meters tall or so and when one plants the point on to the floor of the big house it symbolizes the authority the chief has in his territory. When a Chief is holding the talking stick, everyone listens. In these contexts the stick is not passed because the power and authority rests with the Chief.
When OSonOS came to Vancouver in 2001 I wanted to acknowledge the traditional territories upon which we were gathered, and the practices and gifts of wisdom, stewardship and governance that come from the First Nations of this part of the world, who have owned, cherished, loved and governed their territories in an unbroken chain of responsibility and sustainability for more than 15,000 years, from time immemorial. I wanted to contribute a west coast talking stick to the global community that could be used to pass in the closing circle as a way of sharing the authority for the event and for the global community. I believe this particular stick was carved by a Heiltsuk carver, which is a Nation that lies about 300 kms to the north of where I live. I purchased the stick at the gallery of the Vancouver Aboriginal Friendship Centre. The stick contains four animals, from top to bottom they are a raven, a bullfrog, a beaver and an eagle. As is true with totem poles, the animals are ranked with the most important one being at the bottom. This small talking stick is the kind often used for meetings in Indigenous organizations here in British Columbia, so it is designed to be used on a table top or planted on ones thigh when speaking.
That talking stick was a gift from Laurel Doersam and I to the global community and I cannot even imagine how many times it has travelled the world and how many hands it has been through. Collectively it represents our desire to steward the global community of practice and be responsible for its ongoing sustainability as a place of learning and growing the practices of Open Space. It passed through my hands first and your hands most recently, and I invite all to reflect on its journey when they receive and notice what it feels like to pass it on in trust, and as one more link in the pearls of time and wisdom that flow around the world.

Dear Peggy,
do you remember the appearanc of two rainbows over the Pacific in
Monterey as we were
crafting a new name for "OSonOS" and someone suggested "Worldwide
OSonOS"....
"WOSonOS"?
I felt that was a grand intervention.
Another intervention impressing me was Ralph Copleman grabbing a poster
with Harrison's name on it that someone had positioned in the Center of
the Circle and tearing it appart.
It stirred up the deeper power of "Whoever comes is the right people".
Harrison did not show up in person in Monterey suffering from what he
called the "Berlin Flue".
And yes, I also remember Birgitt's deep reaction to several folks
leaving our OSonOS after having been in her session on "What is Open
Space Technology" (or something similar to that) cheerfully exclaiming
"Thanks, we now know how it works"... she
was angry at - what I felt - this shameless impudence.
....
peace and love

Hi Michael,
I do remember the double rainbow! It happened on what we called “Day 3” - a meeting among people who were stewarding international Open Space Institutes.
I’ve attached the proceedings from that meeting. (Hopefully the attachment comes through.) I’ve copied the session notes that talked about the rainbow below.
We declared the formation of “World-wide Open Space.” I guess that has since evolved to WOSonOS.
I also remember that Harrison got sick and didn’t make it to Monterey. I think it was Anne Stadler who invited us to create a get-well card to send him. It sat in the center of the circle until Ralph Copleman symbolically pulled Harrison out of the center of the circle by moving that big card made of multiple sheets of flip-chart paper out of the circle. (I remember him moving it not tearing it apart.) It was like the air cleared.
What I most recall in that morning circle was a tense exchange about “in groups” and “out groups.” I sat breathing and sinking energetic roots as deeply as I knew how as people spoke their anger, frustration, caring, curiosity, and more. A woman I didn’t know took the talking stick at one point, got up and wove in and out of the circle talking about what was: some felt in, some felt out, and all of it was legitimate. Something shifted in the room, as it did when Ralph moved Harrison out of the center. As a group, we went until there was nothing left to say. I remember sitting there catching my breath when the circle broke and Ralph sat down next to me and asked if I was okay. It was such an act of kindness.
To this day that circle was one of the most challenging experiences I’ve had in Open Space. From the outside, it probably looked like I was doing nothing. Inside, I was listening to ensure the space stayed open for whatever needed to be expressed. Ralph’s acknowledgment of the challenge and my being present to the moment meant a lot to me.
So much learning….

TOPIC #5: <>Opportunity: World wide Open Space with possibility of becoming an NGO of the United Nations
CONVENORS: Birgitt Bolton and Barry Owen
(Birgitt had posted the topic as above. Barry had posted the topic of Global Open Space. They decided to combine topics)
PARTICIPANTS:
Paul Ash, Brian Bainbridge,Birgitt Bolton, Chandra Christian, Leon Deking, Diana Griesshammer, Peggy Holman, Sheila Isakson, Joelle Lyons-Everett, Roy Mayhugh, Linda Olson, Barry Owen, Michael Pannwitz, Katrina Petri, Larry Peterson
DISCUSSION/SUMMARYJust moments before this discussion began, we had all been dazzled by a wonderful double rainbow right outside our window, over the ocean.
Birgitt presented her desire for a world wide presence of Open Space. Her belief is that if enough groups use Open Space throughout the world, that we will have peace on earth. She also presented information from a meeting that she had had with Bruce Erickson the evening before. Bruce suggested that if world wide open space was to be, that for added credibility and contacts, that World Wide Open Space become an NGO (non-government organization) of the United Nations. He said that he could facilitate this as a former staff of the World Health Organization in Geneva and that he could arrange for one of the three critical conditions to be met---a letter of support for World Wide Open Space from a member of the United Nations. He could and would also supply us with the necessary paperwork. The discussion followed along the following lines:
v The words “world wide” are preferable to “global” or “international”. Each of the other words has particular meanings in other countries
v We agreed that we met one of the three criteria for United Nations NGO status in that we were represented by people from at least three countries. There were four countries represented in this discussion
v As OS practitioners that gather together, we gather as a place to meet, spread the idea of Open Space, we do not gather for profit to any one of us
v Association is a better word for us to be using than Institute
v If the Association has us all as practitioners rather than as members, it clearly clarifies that we are not here for our own profit
v An Association under British Law is thought as a network for greater good. In the US the concept of association is different in the non-profit sector ie: Blue Cross which is really a large money maker
v If we move forward with intention as a United Nations NGO, there will be many legalities we will have to deal with, the setting up of a bank account, etc.
v The mailing address of the Association should not be in the US
v We agreed that the NGO status aught to be explored so as to achieve it. Agreed that Birgitt would research this, and supply notes to others in this group who would help as needed to move this forward
v World Wide Open Space (Association) would mean that we would transcend boundaries caused by countries
v Don’t disband the local institutes, in fact there should be more in as many countries as possible
v This world wide presence is not to be a controlling body. Rather more like an amoeba
v There was great value from the beginning that the two initial Open Space Institutes were birthed almost simultaneously, taking care of the fact that there never was one controlling body
v Lets use verb rather than noun “institute”
v Lets use World Wide Open Space rather than adding on any word such as institute. However agreed that if an added on word is to be used, that the word be “association” rather than “insitute”
v Larry Peterson then took the initiative of saying that rather than continuing the conversation about whether or not we had a global intention
WE HAVE NOW FORMED WORLD WIDE OPEN SPACE
v The institutes all agreed to support World Wide Open Space, to develop a world wide consciousness through things like stating so on our correspondence, letterhead, looking for people who can multiply awareness of the existence of Open Space such as business clubs, do speaking engagements when possible, do Open Space events when possible (have to experience it to really understand it)
v Conversation continued regarding having WORLD WIDE OPEN SPACE as an NGO of United Nations
v Larry would contact Linda Stardob (sp?) who works for the United Nations Development Program to see what she could offer by way of information/help
v Peggy said that when paperwork needed to be filled out, could reference the paperwork the US filled out to achieve their 501C3
v All agreed that whatever legalities and structure needed to be set up in order to meet the criteria for the World Wide Open Space (Association) to become an NGO of United Nations, that the group will was for this to be kept to the minimum that we could get away with. We do not want unnecessary imposed structure.
WE AGREED THAT REGISTRATION AS AN NGO OF THE UNITED NATIONS WOULD GIVE US ESTABLISHED CREDIBILITY ON A WORLD WIDE LEVEL AND WE WOULD PROCEED WITH EXPLORING THIS WITH A DESIRE FOR A POSITIVE OUTCOME

Dear Peggy,
do you remember the appearanc of two rainbows over the Pacific in Monterey as we were
crafting a new name for "OSonOS" and someone suggested "Worldwide OSonOS"....
"WOSonOS"?
I felt that was a grand intervention.
Another intervention impressing me was Ralph Copleman grabbing a poster with Harrison's name on it that someone had positioned in the Center of the Circle and tearing it appart.
It stirred up the deeper power of "Whoever comes is the right people".
Harrison did not show up in person in Monterey suffering from what he called the "Berlin Flue".
And yes, I also remember Birgitt's deep reaction to several folks leaving our OSonOS after having been in her session on "What is Open Space Technology" (or something similar to that) cheerfully exclaiming "Thanks, we now know how it works"... she
was angry at - what I felt - this shameless impudence.
....
peace and love

Chris - loved your telling of the story of the talking stick! I can picture you demonstrating how to hold it as you told us about it in 2001 in Vancouver.
Gentza Eleder, can you share the link to Lisa’s compilation of wisdom? When went looking for it and couldn't find it. She was so far sighted to start that tradition. What a joy to meet you in Bilbao!
Looking forward to seeing old friends and new in Istanbul!

Dear Maryana, Anna Caroline and all OS friends!
Thank you for your invitation to respond the "super short questionnaire".
Doing that has significated to me a very beautiful and profound appreciative
inquiry of the incredible XIX WOSonOS 2011 Chile, with the invaluable
presence of Harrison Owen.
For making it more clear to all, I have decided to include also here a link
to an archive with the best photos of that event that incorporate at the
same time an alternative link to the Book of Proceedings:
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10207560241942005
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10207560241942005&type=3 &type=3
