Small Events
Purpose
Actions this scale will convene small, focused groups of people (2 - 20) to address a particular challenge or theme.
Small actions are 1) targeted and reasonable for the duration and participant size, 2) low budget, 3) nearly 100% community-driven.
Resources
- A target: what will you achieve?
- An audience: who will come?
- A place: where will you meet?
- A communication channel: how will participants tell the rest of the world what they've achieved?
Examples
- Worksprints
- MozPub
- MozCafe
- Design Jams
Tips
For example, rather than hosting a meet-up for web developers (very general and hard to gauge the relevance), a small live action would instead target experienced developers from news organizations to design HTML5 applications for visualizing raw data sources.
This type of meet-up could be held in a bar or a coworking space or an internet cafe anywhere in the world.
