Open Government Listening Sessions

Collaboration with the public on Open Government at times requires going "offline" and connecting in person with groups  who share a  passion for the subject.  Below you will find the list of events we have been a part of, and any summaries that might be available. If you have more data to add, let us know by sending an email to opengov@ostp.gov.

(You can also view the content sent to us From the Inbox, or go back to the Open Government Initiative at Whitehouse.gov.)

Also available: the MAX OMB Wiki conversations on Transparency, Collaboration, and Participation from February-March 2009.
