What is barcampnfp? Barcamp Non-Profits is an unconference for individuals who want to do social good with technology. It's designed for anyone interested or involved in non-profit or technology work to come together to learn from each other, and to network. An unconference is an open, workshop-style event where the content is provided by the participants. There have been 6 years worth of previous events covering topics such as; social impact measurement, using open source tech in charity and non-profit organisations, using of the power of open data,mobilising via social media, digital tools swapshop, running a hackathon for a cause, and more.  A key part of the event is the diversity of people - that's why we've got more than one type of ticket. Who should attend? Anyone working in a non-profit who is interested in technology: charities, arts & culture, education, government etc Anyone working in digital and technology who is interested in social good: entrepreneurs, developers, designers, strategists etc. (Agency and supplier folk welcome but with the caveat 'not to sell')  What's in it for you? An amazing learning and networking opportunity that reaches places many traditional conferences don't. Past attendees have said they learnt something new that they didn't know they didn't know, and they were able to develop existing ideas to take back into work. The benefits continue post-event through the networks you build on the day. Plus its fun and it's free. Our drop-out policy Because our event is free and in high demand we'll ask you to confirm your attendence closer to the date so we can re-issue any cancelled spaces to our waiting list. If you don't cancel and don't turn up you'll be added to our strike-out list which means tickets won't be available to you for the next event.
