We want to get people interested in OSE and also connect with people who are interested in OSE and the GVCS. Here is a list of the outreach.
Universities
University Collaboration (this holds true for some universities right now, and is far from complete as the educational systems are varying very strongly from university to university and the legal and organisatorial constrains are all take from Germany)
Bachelor/Master/PhD Thesis
Master/PhD Thesises are more interesting, as the time to finish them is not so short as in the Bachelor thesis. So you could expect a student working for half a year to a year (depending on the university and the enthusiasm of the student) on a particular project.
* Preliminaries: Database of possible topics for thesises. There should be some algorithm to get suitable thesises out of the System Engineering of the OSE projects, or the managers of the projects make a list of possible thesises to offer them to the university students. The thesises may be theoretical as well as theoretical/practical, projects with the focus on practical work are better suitet for internships) * Cooperation with a professor at the respective university, as the thesises have to be assisted there. * Contract with the student that they release there work under some Creative Commons License (legally should this be no problem as a thesis is always under the copyright of the author, also it is 'done for the university') * Assistance through the OSE Manager/Contributors, working on the subject that is topic of the thesis
Internships
For example at the 'Universities for Applied Sciences' in Germany every student has to do a 18 Week internship in some Corporation, Research Facility etc. People who are doing there internship could come to a OSE building facility to build some Prototype OR the workshop of the university (they tend to be quite cool and FabLabig) could be used to produce a Prototype.
Competitions
There are many different scholarly engineering competitions among students, like the Robot Football Cup, the Formula Student and many others. Perhaps OSE-E and also OSE Worldwide could make some kind of 'competition' where the students try to build the best prototype for one machine. As OSE proposes collaboration one has to regulate the Opening of the Sources. But as students really have fun to compare their skill to these of others I think it would be no problem to keep the plans secret until the Presentation of the Products. Measurement Scheme for the winner would be all the OSE standards and how good they are conversed.

Conferences
2011
- Open Knowledge Conference, 1. July 2011 in Berlin, Germany
Comments: Talk presented. We get in touch with several guys. From OSE Europe here were: Nikolay, Andreas, Mattieu and Ino.
- Initiative Nachhaltige Marktwirtschaft, 8. July, Stuttgart, Germany
Comments: Talk presented.
- Free Society Conference and Nordic Summit (FSCONS), 11-13. November 2011, Sweden
Deadline: August 1st
- Ignite WebMontag Talks in Germany
- Stuttgart, 25. July - Nikolay
- Frankfurt, 8. August - Nikolay
- Karlsruhe, 26. September - Nikolay
- Chaos Communications Congress of the Chaos Computer Club, this is the Page to the congress last year, it will be in Berlin from 27th to 30th again in 2011.
Comments: No Schedules etc. online yet. This would be a great possibility to make collaborations with Hackerspaces and Fablabs as well as other Hardware Design Projects. The CCC fits very good for presenting OSE I think.
2012
- Lift12, 22-24. Feb, Geneva
- 12th European Permaculture Convergence Escherode, date not yet published
Events
Eco Villages
Transition Towns
Transition Town Witzenhausen (51°20′32″N 9°51′28″E) Andreas is familiar to some of the project initiators and is contacting them. This might actually be a possibility to get stuff built, as in Transition Towns many entrepreneurs are starting with off-grid and small scale solutions. Let's see.
