Bonjour Catherine,
For all those following and interested in your proposed gathering
in Switzerland, this is encouraging: something will happen.
As for more documentation in French, you were probably refering to
Deborah Hartman's message about this. She talked about "the
importance of developing native skills with OST". I was out of town
openspacing when Deborah sent her message so had not reacted to it
but I agree entirely with her. That means that even if we may share
some central pieces, we need several sets of documentation in
French. As you know, Marquis Bureau who has been communicating
with the List on behalf of the FoFo organizing committee and who
has over 12 years experience with OST is also developing resources
in French with some of your Swiss colleague Marianne and an African
colleague. They have concluded that each country has it's own
termininology and way of saying things and that each has to adapt
the documentation to give it local meaning.
As to for what exists now, Open Space Institute of Canada
www.openspacecanada.org has examples of OSt stories in french its
french articles, the newsletters and via links to other resources
and so does www.openspaceworld.org I also have some on my website
www.dianegibeault.com and am working on developing more. So does
Esther Matte http://www.excellence.ca, member of the Fofo
committee.There may be more and they are likely to show up on the
list following your request.
Things are brewing in the many french OST communities!
Diane

Hi Diane,
I'll let you knw, what happen.I worte to Nelly in Givisiez and see
what happens. Otherwise I might organsize something at my place and

documentation in french to promote OST. I'm looking for OST stories
to have some documentation, but but if some already exists in
french, I'll be very thankful to receive them or to konow where the

Bonjour Catherine,
I'm happy to hear your suggestion of an exchange on OST in
Switzerland.
The plan is for me to facilitate the French OST training in
Switzerland February 13 to 15. The plan is also for me to
facilitate an OST training in Lyon France on Jan 30 to Feb 1st.
I'd be delighted to participate to any kind of exchange in French
on Open Space outside the training sessions. Let me know what
works for you.
Diane

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
