Thank you for posting this Peggy. Now that dates are set, I'll send your
post along to colleagues in other African countries with encouragement to
attend.
Ward and I led trainings in Working With Open Space Technology in both
Nigeria and Ethiopia, and we had a leader from Ghana attend the same
training at our home in North Carolina. These people are facilitating using
what they learned. I have one story that was very special to us.
Peter lived in northern Nigeria. Our training took place in Abuja. Peter
used some train travel and did a lot of walking to get to Abuja. His tribe
has chosen him to go to the training to learn on behalf of the tribe, and
he was responsible for sharing what he learned once he got back. Resources
were pooled to make this possible. I picture him doing all that travel, not
easy, and the hope in his heart that he shared about the difference that he
and others could make in northern Nigeria in their work of improving
conditions, particularly for young girls and women...and the many issues
being faced.
As a tall thin person with strong warrior energy, when he arrived I felt a
bit intimidated. it didn't help that when I met him he had just found out
that he had been given the wrong start date of the workshop and it was day
2 of 4. He was so angry, disappointed, and expressive during morning news.
When I found out later in that day that he was a strong advocate of women,
especially against the practice of child brides, and put his life at risk
regularly to fight for the rights of women, I felt chagrined. He, including
his warrior energy, was needed for making the difference. I had no doubt he
would be a great facilitator of OST meetings with just the right themes. I
continue to be grateful to him for his work...and for staying in touch with
me for well over a decade, giving me glimpses into his challenges and his
work. I hope to convince him to attend WOSONOS.
Warmly,
Birgitt

Thanks Birgit and Thomas for getting the word out.
What inspiring stories Birgitt!
Do you — or anyone — know how to reach the man from Balama who does Open Space to let him know about it? I just left a comment on the Peace Work Africa https://peaceworkafrica.net/open-space-de-retour-a-balama/ site that has the video. But it would sure be wonderful to let the person who did that Open Space know WOSonOS is coming to Africa.

Funny, the very first place where I read the book, and then facilitated a
full 2.5 day OST gathering was Brackenhurst in 2005!!!... maybe Nairobi is
calling me back...
And interestingly Wikimania is also in Nairobi this year:
