Learning in the Open is an initiative to help people worldwide learn the skills they need to live, work, and play in the open online. Drawing on the experience of Mozilla, Creative Commons and others, it covers open content, open web technology and collaborative online work. Courses are locally organized and taught peer-to-peer style, with support for local leaders provided through a global online community. | Learning in the Open is an initiative to help people worldwide learn the skills they need to live, work, and play in the open online.

==Opportunity== | |||
Self organized meetings happening everywhere. We can find them in any country. | |||
Use this infrastructure and connect w/ these communities and provide support: | |||
* people who could contribute and add another layer | |||
** adds new content and add in our expertise | |||
** (how do we contribute our expertise to these events happening?) | |||
** (why? trad foundation funding doesn't fit w/ this) | |||
* layering something inside an already vibrant space | |||
* follow up and more enduring network experience | |||
** could campaigns come out of this? | |||
** air traffic control to do this? | |||
* ambition: brings new people and ideas into campaigns | |||
** ties back to campaigns, maybe one that is joint CC / Mozilla | |||
** local reps know how to explain this and hype people | |||
** online pipeline | |||
* ideas: open access, open government | |||
* identity -> possible touch point w/ cc copyright registry stuff | |||
* privacy implications of open data under a CC license | |||
* open video | |||
