NEW GSusJ13 dates!

on Wed, 04/17/2013 - 12:53

Global Sustainability Jam 2013 will take place on the WEEKEND OF THE 22nd OF NOVEMBER, 2013.

(That's the 22-24 November in most countries, but it might be the 21-23 or 20-22 in some countries, for example in the Middle East.)
 
The last Global Sustainability Jam took place in around 80 cities, and was an amazing weekend of creativity, sharing, fun and hard work. Let's make GSusJ13 even better!

It's certain - there will be a Global Sustainability Jam in 2013!

On the tail of the latest amazing Global Service Jam (our sister event which took place in a whopping 124 cities!), Jam initiators Markus and Adam confirmed that GSusJ13 will take place in October or November 2013! As soon as the exact date is announced, we will start accepting sites. Until then, watch this space.

And, if you can't wait until October or November, check out www.govjam.org.  It could be the most powerful Jam yet!
