Greetings
-The First OS on OS in French was held on September 14, 15, and 16
2007 in Val-David in the Laurentians, near Montréal, Québec, Canada;
- 30 participants responded to the invitation;
- September 14, on a sunny afternoon sitting by the lake,
storytelling took place on the topic of our best OST stories, using
the circle and the talking piece;
- The theme for September 14 and 15 was Reaching New Heights in our
Knowledge and our Practices of Open Space;
- The theme for September 16 was French-language Networks at the
local, national, and international levels;
- Three Haitians were offered bursaries from our sponsors.
Unfortunately, they were unable to obtain a visa on time for our
event;
-The presence of an African Canadian from Alberta representing a
multicultural non profit organization was a real gift to the group.
When he realized that the spirit and many parts of the Open Space
ritual actually originate from Africa, it felt like the Open Space
approach had come home and all of us had the privilege of being
invited to that warm place;
- Sponsors for the events were Open Space Institute Canada, Open
Space Institute-USA, World Map, and Auberge Prema Shanti;
-The Prema Shanti ( www.premashanti.ca) in Val David Québec was
really a magical setting. The owner Karim was fully connected with
the spirit of our gathering;
-Many times people said: At last, an OSonOS in French with a group
of people who share the intention of keeping a French support
network alive. A group who wants to take leadership to help
disseminate the wonderful Open Space gift to people, to
organizations, and to humanity;
-The organizing committee was very happy of the experience of this
first OSonOS in French and wishes to thank everyone who has
contributed to its success;
-Those interested are invited to meet October 12 and 13 2007 to
further discuss the creation of a French-language network. Details
to be confirmed;
The organising committee: Diane Gibeault, Esther Matte, Etienne
Beaulieu, Roch Landry, and Marquis Bureau
