Call for Participation

Become part of ÖffiCON*: contribute your ideas, inputs and contacts to ÖffiCON*. Respond to our Call for Participation until January 31st, 2021!

Your Contribution to ÖffiCON*

Want to get involved? Hand in your contribution to the programme, whether workshop or presentation. Alternatively, you can assist us in the implementation of ÖffiCON* – helping hands are always needed! Do you want to be visible? Be part of our virtual exhibition space, which we are in the process of creating right now. You are part of a network? Then help ÖffiCON* gain more public attention!

We provide a stage for your ideas!

Get involved in the debate on good public transport! We are certain you will find links to your personal interests and strengths in our topic fields: diversity & participation, implementation & politics, or new alternatives of financing. For more information on the respective fields, look here.

What we are looking for:

Your ideas, visions and projects – introduced in the form of a presentation, discussion, workshop, or even an activity or game. We want ÖffiCON* to be a platform for shedding light on the question of mobility transformation from multiple and diverse perspectives. Thus, we welcome contributions from people of all genders and origins.

We want to invite you to share your experiences, knowledge and tips to help ÖffiCON* be a success. There are many ways to support ÖffiCON*! Apart from presenters, we are also looking for volunteers and multipliers – so have a look at our Call for Participation!

What we offer:

A stage and an expectant, excited audience. Besides, we offer to record and publish your session. And of course, you can expect loads of fun, new experiences and fruitful contacts.

Join in!

You can find all the necessary information on the Call for Participation – on our website and in our FAQs. The deadline for submissions is January 31st, 2021.

¹ Please note: we welcome submissions of all kinds. Our formats are generally limited to a duration of two hours. Please indicate in your description whether you require remuneration, as well as the exact sum, as we cannot offer financial compensation to all contributors. We will let you know by February 15th, 2021, whether your submission will be included in the conference programme.

² Further information on the workshops: it is possible to conduct a workshop in two sessions (i.e. four hours total). It is important for us to offer a varied and broad programme. We would thus like to ask you to include multiple opportunities for the participants to get actively involved.

³ We employ the term “Awareness” to describe tolerant, mindful and respectful interaction, which we strive to create and ensure throughout the programme. At ÖffiCON*, people of various social standings and backgrounds, with different experiences and opinions will come together. We are looking forward to the diversity within the common frame.

We want to create an atmosphere in which everyone feels comfortable. To achieve this, we ask you to show the kind of awareness described above: be considerate and respectful. We will not tolerate sexism, racism, ableism, homo- or transphobia, as well as any form of discrimination to be displayed or propagated during ÖffiCON*. We are glad about everyone who supports us in making ÖffiCON* a safe space.
