I wrote this as a guide to organizations who might want to organize larger-scale (hundreds or thousands) online conferences. Dunno if it needs its own thread, but as I point out, the corona virus crisis presents an opportunity to initiate a more permanent change that would reduce the carbon footprint of large face to face conferences:

At this moment there is no structure or direction for our potential work together, just the gathering moments. While we gather, it might be useful to start thinking about where online facilitation, and for me, particularly, Liberating Structures, can help people meet remotely. So some of the things that come to mind are: - smaller, regular work meetings (not limited to business - any kind of work)
- medium planned events that have to be cancelled
- very large events?
- keep education going while schools close (kindergarden up)
- What else?
I have also set up one initial Google doc for resources, but we'll have to get a little more organized on that soon.??Maybe someone wants to start organizing that.?
I have a Zoom instance we can use to organize some initial synchronous conversations, but my instinct is we need both sync and async, and probably break ourselves down into disappearing work groups - find a job, go do it, come back!
