Aspiration events are first and foremost convened to strengthen the ties and social networks of technology practitioners in the non-profit/non-governmental sectors.

Our agenda [[Agenda:Philosophy|Philosophy]] centers around getting participants into small-group discussions where they can discuss topics they are passionate about and get answers to their questions and curiosities.

Our [[Agenda:Goals|Goals]] are driven as whole by the desire to build capacity to write better software to empower social change organizations.

[[Agenda:Hacking|Agenda Hacking]] explains how to dynamically generate well-curated agenda topics from any size crowd in under 45 minutes.

Our [[Agenda:Guidelines|Guidelines]] explains how the event is envisioned to unfold, and what is expected of participants.

[[Agenda:Sessions|Sessions]] at Aspirations have particular traits; we de-emphasize presentations and lecture, and instead focus on "break-out" sessions that are self-organized whenever possible.

[[Agenda:Session Design|Session Design]] offers guidelines on how to design and structure individual sessions at an event.

[[Agenda:Pre-Event Interviews|Pre-Event Interviews]] are a great way to let participants co-create the agenda, and serve as an excellent to identify promising facilitators, and spot potential problem participants :^)
