Conference

WORK IN PROGRESS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OUR ACTIONS

At the 2016 WORK IN PROGRESS conference, work should not be thought of in relation to its consequences, rather the focus is on effectiveness. The effectiveness of a job is measured by how it influences its surroundings and the relationship between defined goal and achievement. What does that mean for us – individually, artistically, professionally but, above all, socially? The Hamburg Conference for the Future of Work enters its fifth cycle and this year it’s going on tour! As such WORK IN PROGRESS bids farewell to the traditional conference format and blurs the boundaries between stage and auditorium. Conference participants are brought to the venues by bus, where there is work to be done. They choose a topic and visit businesses and institutions, whose employees pursue targets in the same sphere (Descriptions of all tours: see below). But the motivation and type of effectiveness varies among non-government organisations, artists, businesses, social enterprises, activists and public bodies. WORK IN PROGRESS invites you to join in a dialogue with different participants in their individual domains. Experts deliver the theoretical background along the way. The conference closes with a keynote speech at Kampnagel and an informal final debrief, to share impressions and experiences with participants of other tours.
