Financing Nomad Bases / Financial Sustainability of Projects

possibilities for making projects sustainable


proposal:
split into smaller groups

  • goals:
    • getting understanding of different projects and how they work, learn from mistakes they made
    • find a sustainable approach to funding projects that goes along with our philosophy
    • feelings: how do people FEEL about us selling beer here?
    • one small group for zero-budget approaches
    • pavlik wants to find people who talk about their projects and see how they could work without money
  • feelings towards money:
    • alex worked in building open source business and liked to be able to influence "the system" with no

-money ideas

    • transpareny about finances are really important, how can we create transpareny in that projects
  • pavl

What Is a Nomad Base (and other related ideas)

Summary (by George J.):
We discussed "What is a Nomad Base" (or Nomad Place or Nomad Space) in two primary contexts: expectations and function within nomadbase.org.

  • Function: After much discussion about what a nomad base/space/place could be and the differences between them, we agreed on a possible "minimal set" of things that a base is.
  • Expectations: What does a nomad expect from a base/space/place? What does a base/space/place expect from a nomad? These expectations seem wildly different from nomad to nomad and likely will be from base to base, and between bases, spaces, and places.
