'''This session focused on how to share inspirational examples of AF projects, both internally and externally.'''

'''One outcome of this session was the [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1SPMNibLqjgPP48csc_b9MWvEa9jMs8BbeNAbWuI66kQ/edit?usp=sharing Global Inspirational Projects List] (see [[Resources and References]])'''

The initial group* went around and shared their favourite projects from memory (usually one 'more orphans' and one 'more flamethrowers' project). Jeffrey transcribed these into the [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1SPMNibLqjgPP48csc_b9MWvEa9jMs8BbeNAbWuI66kQ/edit?usp=sharing Global Inspirational Projects List], but some need corrected titles, links, summaries, and photos at the time of writing.

Group discussed having a 'superlatives' list (most likely to take over the world, etc) for projects, each chapter could feature their best for inclusion in this list.

Dave: create a resource kit for all chapters

−	Dave: create a resource kit for all chapters	+	Dave: create a resource kit for all chapters - a list of great projects for inspiration
		+
		+	Terry: My dream is to have a once a day email list of AF projects, ideally a short video explaining what each project is
		+
		+	Gavin: Before each summit: each chapter chooses their fav project of the year (using the website 'Awesome' button? Group: this probably won't work for that purpose)
		+
		+	Kara: create an export of all projects per chapter to use as a resource
		+
		+	Tina: share out when you find a particularly important project (on social media?)
		+
		+	Dave: create a twitter account for just top projects?
		+
		+	Andrew: do we want one resource for communicating to chapters, and a different one for public PR?
		+
		+	Dave: wants viz of metrics on submissions
		+
		+	Website Feature Request:
		+
		+	"Currently featured project" button that chapters can use to send a project to the top of their page on the Awesome site.
		+	Also, possibly all of the currently featured projects can be collected on one page on the AF site.
		+
		+	or
		+	"share globally" button that sends a project to the global awesome list? Would we want a summary written by the chapter or by the grantee?
		+
		+	Gavin: a mailing list is better than a website / website-feature?
		+
		+	Where does "currently featured project" go? Which part of the AF site? we need to design/create requirements for this.
		+
		+	Awesome Inspirational Projects mailing list?
		+	Awesome Podcast?
		+
		+	Tina: as a use of the optional the application field: a question asking for a One-or-Two Sentence Pitch to summarize project
		+
		+	Dave: if grantee is not best of writers, summary may not be great content that we want to share publicly
		+
		+	Ana: in Rio, successful grantees are given the opportunity to rewrite their projects to be shared publicly - possibly with update on status of project
		+
		+	Gavin: what if the mailing list has a weekly digest of tweets from all chapters?
		+
		+	Ana: create a committee of people dedicated to sharing global Awesome material on social media? (they might select the best projects worldwide to feature)
		+
		+	Group: we have some options:
		+
		+	Create a Static List, infrequently updated, share with anyone who could use it (we implemented this in the form of the above linked presentation)
		+	vs.
		+	Continuously updated feed, for example on a Facebook group, that keeps people engaged and informed of latest inspirational projects (this might be accomplished with the Website Feature Request above - or it could be crowdsourced from all chapters to manually add their favs)
		+
		+	Dave: we want to define a technical/personell workflow
		+
		+	Jeff Cho: just send an email to the global awesome list when there's a particularly great highlight you want to share?
		+
		+	Group discussed these options and decided to start with something achievable, static list in form of above linked presentation that anyone can edit.
