I have 36 hours to put together a poster presentation about situating Platform Co-operativism in a local context (Japan). Our original research plan sort of dissipated so I have a mostly blank slate.
Anyone have any insights/suggestions on what to include/highlight? It's a good opportunity for me to showcase Platform Co-operativism at ICA!
@emi @keiko Can you do a kind of counter-factual -- what PCJ could have looked like? Which pieces we had/have, which we were/are missing? Too inward maybe... Maybe just flesh out the PCJ stakeholder diagram? Maybe make a PCJ cooperative business model canvas? You could highlight strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and obstacles?
How about PCJ sugoroku!? So people can "play" your poster!
#brainstorming
@emi Sounds good to me. Three ideas: I see solidarity economy as a larger framework, like a second dimension, because it encompasses all the others -- at least in theory. Not as one stakeholder category. Second, it would be interesting to create some kind of heat map to show which stakeholders we have managed to engage (and which are lacking). Third, it seems good to show PCI in its global context... now sure how. One more: might be interesting to raise the language question.
@emi Also -- if you remove solidarity economy and make it another dimension, that leaves space to add academia -- an important and problematic element...
@Matt_Noyes Ooooo YES!!!! SOO important. Ok, I will tweak and update later tonight!
@Matt_Noyes @emi Maybe solidarity economy (civil economy, P2P-commons economy - however its theorised) *is* the global context Matt was prompting for? Pictured as an oppositional constellation, engaged with market, State, volunteer economy, households. See https://youngfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Danger-and-Opportunity-September-2009.pdf
Academia - yes, problematic. Partly, part of the State. Partly a home of radical 'volunteer' pro-change activism. Partly in the market, an industrial sector.
Language question also a good one - national limits?
Just re-working the ideas:
1) I feel like the image represents "expertise" or essentially where your "stake" is in the eco-system
2) academic/ entrepreneurial would be dimensions for your "interests"?
3) language would be interesting too...
4) heat map: I have a breakdown of the different self identified sectors that people who came to the workshops... now the challenge is how to map that in comparison with breakdown of participants at global conferences
@Matt_Noyes @emi Really sorry i haven’t scope to engage in this at this time. This is interesting - keep it up Matt. Definitely interested to see what results from this :)
@Matt_Noyes
Currently I have just the image!
I was thinking some sort of homage to what we were discussing re: chpt 28 of OTHAO (local vs. global)?
Do a comparison of the few surveys I have from the workshop vs. global engagement based on attendance? (although there might not be time for this?)
