ABOUT SocialChangeCamp is a conference for forward-thinking public interest organizations seeking new and diverse ways to leverage technology to recruit volunteers, build communities, inspire grassroots movements, reach donors, and facilitate effective advocacy. SocialChangeCamp empowers socially conscious organizations with channels and techniques that help them find relevance and accessibility in social media and related technology, regardless of their current levels of engagement. By educating, empowering, and connecting our community members, we act as a catalyst for social change.

We are a BarCamp conference, which means there is no predetermined schedule of events - attendees choose what to present at the conference, and are free to see as many or as few events as they like. (LINK: What to expect at a BarCamp.)

Inspired by the increased influence of socially conscious programs and events comes the first SocialChangeCamp, an all-day BarCamp style event scheduled for Saturday, September 26, 2009 at NYU’s Woolworth Building campus at 15 Barclay Street near Broadway.

Modeled after user-generated conferences like BarCamp, SocialChangeCamp NYC will act as a resource for forward-thinking public interest organizations seeking new ways to leverage technology.

Through a series of sessions and discussions, NYC’s best and brightest social media and technology professionals will show non-profits, charities, museums, schools, corporate social responsibility teams, NGOs and other socially conscious organizations how to reach out to their communities in inspired and meaningful ways. The day’s agenda includes sessions addressing volunteer recruitment, online community building, grassroots organizing, donor cultivation and fundraising and facilitating effective advocacy.

At the event, attendees will be encouraged to be presenters and there’s no set schedule of speakers, allowing for maximum flexibility in deciding topics and conversations that will be presented.
