Working title: Social Evening: Living Library

Session teaser

The European Dialogue on Internet Governance can’t possibly work without people getting together and discussing, that’s why we want to kick-off this year’s YouthDIG with an online Living Library, which would allow all the participants to meaningfully interact and exchange stories, practices and experiences regarding Internet Governance.

Format

The Living Library is a well-known format that it’s possible to reproduce online thanks to Zoom’s breakout Rooms. The concept behind Living Libraries is simple:

Some of the participants are considered to be the “books” and the others take up the role of the “readers”. The latter borrow the ‘book’ for three rounds of brief conversations (20 minutes each) during the event.

You will meet one-on-one or in small groups, via Zoom breakout rooms, so these will be personalized conversations (not presentations).

Prior to the event, the bios of the ‘books’ as well as the focus of the conversation with each ‘book’ will be shared with the YouthDIG participants in a questionnaire to indicate their preferences (mentioning their top 3 choices). The organisers then will match the ‘readers’ with the ‘books’ of their top priorities. Every reader can participate in up to 3 rounds of conversations.


How does it work?

  • When the event starts, all ‘books’ and ‘readers’ will be in one large Zoom call. The hosts will welcome everyone and provide a brief introduction.
  • All books and readers will have been pre-assigned into Zoom breakout rooms (1 ‘book’ per room, along with 1-3 ‘readers’). We as the hosts will initiate the movement to the breakout room (after the introduction), and you'll then find yourself in a 'mini' Zoom call, where you can begin your conversation.
  • Be sure to have everyone in your breakout room introduce themselves, and then you can start the discussion in the way you wish (this should all take less than 5 minutes). You may shortly present your organisation’s current work on a specific issue.
  • Then you have the remaining time for the ‘readers’ to ask questions and to share additional insight (based on your preferences of what you wish to share, and the interests of the ‘readers’).
  • There will be a 2-minute warning pop-up in the break-out room (at the 18-minute mark), before you are all 'zoomed back' into the main meeting. Then the process will repeat itself for the following break-out sessions with different ‘readers’.
