The Goa Project is an annual “unconference” that brings together a diverse set of people from various fields – to converse, collaborate and co-create. Attendees learn, share, and exchange ideas in a range of different formats.

If you have a topic, skill or insight that you believe is worth conducting a debate, discussion, talk, workshop on, go on and use the Funnel to propose a session for it. If you are a performer - be it a solo act, a band, a magician, or an artist, nominate your performance under the section performance. Performers will be given a slot in the evenings once the session wraps up.

We encourage attendees to vote on the proposed topics. The opinion of our event participants is a key factor while curating the sessions that make it into the final agenda.

We have a framework of tracks - Society, Design, Interactive Media & Cinema, Fringe, Music, Performing Arts, etc. and a separate track for workshops. These are defined as sections in the submission form, we may refine these tracks/sections in the next step of the funnel with YOUR contributions.

Note:

Topics related to religion and politics are not accepted.
For your proposal to be considered you need to complete the Delegate Application form here https://goo.gl/forms/gXMi5hPmjWEfq8fz1.

Section: Society Technical level: Intermediate

We propose an interactive session to discuss the pros and cons of the sharing economy and how sharing can be promoted. We would also introduce share-pa.com, a platform, developed by the speakers, for peer-to-peer sharing. The platfrom connects lenders and borrowers and assists in keeping track of the items shared. As the website is in the beta-testing phase, we would like to get feedback from the participants on the platform, on our ideas for increasing adoption and brainstorm on the challenges and potential solutions.
