REWORK THE WORLD

(www.reworktheworld.org)

A global event in 2010 in Sweden 2010 will bring together 2,000 leaders, partners and investors to work around those models and will work closely with leaders of those models as ‘hosts’ of workshops dedicated to their models. The event is supported by the Swedish Government and organized by the Tällberg Foundation in cooperation with the global network Youth Employment Systems (YES). Throughout 2009, a number of country events coordinated with YES country chapters and an online platform that showcases models and their hosts, and ensure a steady build up of the process towards 2010 and beyond.

The Campaign expects to generate:

➢ Significant engagement around the cause to Rework the World with a target to reach 1m people prior to the 2010 Forum, through the media, the web and physical meetings.

➢ Increased visibility of cutting-edge initiatives and models so they can benefit from transactions with leading investors, resourceful institutions and decision-makers, with a target to generate transactions of US$10m by 2012.

➢ (tbc) A reporting/tracking system for people’s plans? 2m opportunities?

We are inviting partners to add their initiatives and skills to help us Rework the World!
