The Goa Project 2018

The Goa Project 2018

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.

The price of gold

Submitted Sep 9, 2018

Why winning a gold medal in sports is not everything we make it out to be.

Outline

With the Asiad’s going so well, it’s a proud moment for India.
I’m an Asian medal winning kayaker who’s seen the other side of India’s sportsmen.
The corruption and nepotism that keeps the great from rising. The next gold medalist is out there waiting to be discovered, but he can’t come out till we put a price to the medal. The right price.
