The call for our 2024 Annual Conference proposals is now open. On October 15-18, we’ll be in Detroit, Michigan—the Motor City and birthplace of the Motown Sound.
We’ve changed things a bit this year so please read on to learn about our new workshop formats.
“Under the Hood”: Workshop Formats and Structure
In response to feedback from last year’s conference, in 2024 we are seeking proposals for workshops in one of two NEW formats. In keeping with our “Drive the Change” theme, we're calling these formats:
- Turbo Talk: A 30-minute workshop with 15 minutes of presentation time and 15 minutes of conversation or other interactive response.
- Road Trip: A 60-minute workshop with presentation time and at least 30 minutes of conversation or other interactive response.
Our goal for both the 30-minute and 60-minute workshops is to take participants “under the hood” of a specific funding scenario. Proposals should focus on an action-oriented exploration of an initiative or funding strategy or strategies, including partners, unexpected factors, successes, failures, and peer-to-peer advice.
Proposal Submission Deadline: March 25, 2024
