- Original Description
“Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. That’s our commitment.” The Wikimedia movement is aiming for a change in people’s behavior, for an impact on society. Yet it is easier said than done.
In this session, Sarah Ulrich from buddY E.V. will talk about the change process towards impact driven work in her organization. She will present about the fun and cool side of impact, will share examples about what she and her colleagues experienced during the introduction and what they learned along the way.
The session is not meant to be a teaching session, but provides inspiration and motivation to think about impact as a way towards a smarter use of our resources.
