How the 2nd Fairphone Community Meetup in Vienna on 20.05.2015 went
We had found a much better Location than last time: The „Jugendkirche Wien“ generously provided us with their event room called “BlueBox”, where we could arrange couches and tables at our pleasure. There was some bread left from another event and Paul organized spread.
All in all we were 11 People, 2 of which came from Graz to Vienna, just for our Meetup, and one even from Bregenz (600km!). Furthermore Vera from the Organization SOL and Su from Vienna Open visited us. Maybe there will be cooperation in the future.
We started with a little flashback to past events (1. FP Meetup, encounter at the FairERleben) and Stefan talked about Fairphone’s 5 main values and current developments. (Unfortunately we didn’t hear anything specific about the Fairphone 2… ) Next Vera and Su talked about their Organizations and efforts.
In the second part of the event Eva moderated the urban mining quiz and then we whipped out some screwdrivers to disassemble a few old cellphones. As a reward, everybody got a Fairphone-T-Shirt, among other goodies.
Thanks to everybody who came, and a special thank you to Michael, who filmed the event.
