OAP explores the relationships between organizations (and organizing), artifacts and practices. One of its aims is to identify and analyse new trends occurring in work practices which currently are becoming more and more digital, distributed, community-oriented, open and collaborative – for instance through the use of open spaces, co-working spaces, digital technologies supporting networks and relationship building, ‘fab labs’, open campuses, corporate/campus tours, boss with no office, Bring Your Own Devices (BYOD), working at home well-being, etc.

We hare happy to share with you the program of next weeks OAP (Organizations, Artifacts and Practices) workshops, hosted by our faculty. OAP is a transdisciplinary international conference focusing on the interesections between materiality, technology and organizing. This year’s overall theme concerns “New Ways of Working”.

Since this is a free and open source event, you are welcome to join workshops, panel debates and keynotes if you like. We especially would like to draw your attention to the Thursday 21 June afternoon workshop on “New Ways of Working” in institutions of higher education, and the subsequent panel debate. If you would like to have a look at the complete program and proceedings, please ask Welmoed (w.kuipers@vu.nl) she will be happy to send you a copy.
