Welcome to eDemocracyCamp 2!

eDemocracyCamp is an unconference about e-democracy (how we can use the internet and technology to support democratic processes) with a particular focus on e-participation (how we can use the internet and technology to support public participation). The goal is to connect researchers, developers, practitioners, citizens and other enthusiasts for a day of intense collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Please help make this event sharable!

There are many folks around the world interested in these topics who can't all attend in person. It would be very nice if all sessions could be recorded (audio, video, live stream) or otherwise documented or captured (wiki, blogs, Twitter etc.). Please indicate below if you can bring equipment or have experience in helping others make their sessions sharable. Thanks!
