We are finally able to announce the dates for the Global Sustainability Jam 2012. We will be jamming on Planet Earth on the first weekend in November (that's the 2, 3 and 4 of November for most if us).

Come and join us! If there is no local Jam near you, it's easy to start one!

And as hard-jamming Mexico City hits the upload deadline, the Global Sustainability Jam 2012 is no longer LIVE. #GSusJ11 is over folks. It's over. It was amazing, thrilling, hard, hard work.

And if you want to do it again - better, hotter, wilder - we'll see you at the Global SERVICE Jam, 24-26 February 2012, Planet Earth.

We're sorry for what went wrong, and we say THANKS for what went right! Enjoy those last presentations, enjoy the parties, enjoy a good night's sleep. Thanks to the wonderful Hosts & EVERY Jammer too! The Global Sustainability Jam was an amazing PLAYGROUND!

We're Jamming!

The first Jam, Tel Aviv, is already Jamming (they have a Friday-Saturday weekend). We wish them well!

Within a few hours, Melbourne, Brisbane and Hong Kong will join them, and the Jam will be truly underway.

Here's to a great Global Sustainability Jam 2011 - we have just 48 hours to save the World.

Join us for a great weekend...

It's just one month until the Global Sustainability Jam starts in dozens of locations worldwide. If you want to spend a wild weekend meeting great people, bouncing ideas around and - this is the best bit - not just talking but actually doing, we hope you will join us!

Whatver your skills, interests or experience, you can make a useful contribution to a Jam near you. And if there is no Jam nearby, it is easy to start one - all you need is a room (perhaps your home or office), a few people and internet connectivity.
