Join us for Day 2 of the virtual exchange event on advancing small-scale hydropower (< 1MW) for climate and economic resilience.  Building on the practitioner exchange of Day 1, Day 2 will focus on interactive, participant driven, multi-actor dialogue for regions of the Ganga, Brahmaputra, Meghna, and Salween River (GBMS) basins (i.e. Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Thailand).

​The following details the timing, topics, and process for Day 2.

OPEN SPACE FACILITATION

​The half-day online event will utilize Open Space Technology (OST) facilitation.  OST as defined by leading facilitator Chris Corrigan is:

  • A simple, powerful way to catalyze effective working conversations and truly inviting organizations — to thrive in times of swirling change.
  • A methodological tool that enables self-organizing groups of all sizes to deal with hugely complex issues in a very short period of time.
  • A powerful group process that supports positive transformation in organizations, increases productivity, inspires creative solutions, improves communication and enhances collaboration.
  • The most effective process for organizations and communities to identify critical issues, voice to their passions and concerns, learn from each other, and, when appropriate, take collective responsibility for finding solutions.  

Four Principles and One Law
​

Open Space operates under four principles and one law.  The four principles are:

1.  Whoever comes are the right people.
2.  Whatever happens is the only thing that could have happened.
3.  When it starts is the right time.
4.  When it's over it's over.

The Law is known as the Law of Two Feet:  "If you find yourself in a situation where you are not contributing or learning, move somewhere where you can."  ​The four principles and the law work to create a powerful event motivated by the passion and bounded by the responsibility of the participants. 

Day 2 is designed to utilize OST facilitation to catalyze dialogue on the theme of solutions for advancing community-scale hydropower for the climate and economic resilience in the GBMS basins.
