ALTShift Festival
Ouishare Egypt is pleased to announce AltShift Festival – a three-day cross-disciplinary event which aims to create a safe place free of egos for changemakers to connect, ask new questions, learn, experiment, and work together on the complex challenges of our time. It’s the start of an Egyptian and international movement to embed a new culture of collaboration with openness and care for people and the planet.
[vc_text_separator title=” More Details ” title_align=”separator_align_left” color=”green” border_width=”2″]
The event will be the first of its kind in Egypt, Africa, and the Middle-East with a zero-waste policy. It’s an international collaboration of 30+ changemakers, from 6 countries (Brazil, Egypt, England, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, USA), who put their resources together to deliver a unique experience for a common cause. AltShift is designed as a physical platform to bring new knowledge from around the world and to promote local activities (ideas, startups, industries, etc.).
Opportunity Focus Areas:
The festival is designed around three themes:
- The HUMAN theme will include tracks like “Human Future(s) of Work,” “Health,” and “Empowering Women” – the latter being a program in collaboration with Womanity Foundation.
- The TECHNOLOGY theme will include tracks such as “Open Organizations,” “Decentralized Technologies – Blockchain and other decentralized technology,” “Fintech,” and an open stage. The day will also include cross-sessions, which will bring together experts from different tracks to collide.
- The final day, which take on The CITY , will invite participants to co-create a “Regenerative City Model.” The Regenerative City Model aims to bring together different positive concepts around regenerative cities and demonstrate how they can be applied
in different contexts to make cities more resilient.
