NGO 2.0 – building the social web for social change

NGO 2.0 - an introduction (40mins)
Everything is online. Everything is online and 2.0. But how NGOs in all-scale could leverage the inner power of 2.0? Following recent four years discussions about NGO 2.0, we will go thru the foundations of Web 2.0 and promote the openness, standardization and sociality for NGO 2.0.

CiviCRM - case study (40mins)
CiviCRM is an constituent relationship management solution, designed specifically to meet the needs of advocacy, non-profit and non-governmental groups. CiviCRM gives you the tools to connect and activate your supporters, including online fundraising and donor management, event registration and participant tracking, membership management, personalized email blasts and newsletters. We will provide in-depth case study to demonstrate the benefits NGO could get via CiviCRM.

Group Discussion (40mins)
We will have two group discussions lead by Richard Chui & Charles Chuang with different focus on CiviCRM implementation and NGO with social web/open source.
