Programme

Held on Thursday 4 September, at Massey University, Wellington, Engage Your Community has a mixture of keynote speeches, presentations, case studies and workshops. Rounded off by drinks and networking at our cocktails function to end the conference.

All keynotes and presentations will be held in Room 4B06. Workshops will be held in the computer labs indicated below. Each workshop can have a maximum of 24 attendees, so shortly before the conference starts we'll be asking you to tell us which workshops you'd like to attend. The workshosp are repeated, so we hope everyone will be able to attend the ones they choose.

The streamed sessions will run five streams concurrently. Four of these are workshops, and the other stream consists of a presentation and two asociated case studies. The presentation will give an overview of the topic and the case studies will be from organisations using some of the tools menioned in the overview.
