How do I participate in the live EUPC Forum 2023 event?

The live EUPC Forum 2023 event will mainly take place via the Crowdcast platform that we used to produce the 2021 EUPC event.

To access the live recordings, you will be sent a registration email in the week leading up to the live event. This will include the details you need to access the broadcasts.

Once you register on Crowdcast for the event, you will be taken to the virtual lobby where you can chat with other attendees of the Forum. Each live session is accessible from the lobby and you will be able to watch the recordings immediately afterwards from this space.

Full instructions are available here: https://forum.eupc.community/technical-tips/

How can I watch the recordings of the EUPC Forum 2023?

All recordings of the live broadcasts will be available immediately after the live show finishes on Crowdcast from the virtual lobby area.

We will also aim to make the recordings available from hidden pages of our website within 24hrs of the finish of each session. Recordings will initially be of the whole live event before being broken down into sections with each individual guest.

More instructions available here: https://forum.eupc.community/technical-tips/

What is the EUPC Winter Series?

The EUPC Winter Series took place in January and February 2023.

There were initially three 1.5hrs broadcasts made via Zoom with guest speakers, giving a taste of what is to come at the main EUPC Forum. All three broadcasts are available free to view via our website here: https://forum.eupc.community/winter-series/

We will be hosting more Winter Series events later in 2024.

There was an Open Space programme in 2021, is this still happening?

Due to limited capacity, the Open Space programme will not be happening at the 2023 event. We hope for this to return, however, later in 2023 as part of our community-building plans for the year.

Why are you using the technology that you are?

When selecting technology to use at this event, we use the following criteria:-

  • Ethics
  • Affordability
  • Accessibility
  • Practicality

For us, it’s essential that the user experience of the technology we choose is as smooth as possible. Similarly, as a group of permaculture enthusiasts, we do not have all the technical skills required to use some software and have to select what best works with our skill set. Finally, affordability is essential so that, in turn, we can keep the event accessible to as many as possible across Europe no matter what their financial circumstance.
