DESCRIPTION:Open source communities don’t grow because people contribute.
  They grow because contributors help create the next contributors.\n\nThis
  interactive workshop introduces the **POPCOM Framework** (Participation\,
  Ownership\, Purpose\, Connection\, Opportunity\, and Mentorship)\, a prac
 tical approach for understanding how communities create future contributor
 s\, organisers\, mentors\, and leaders.\n\nWho this workshop is for:\n- Me
 etup organizers\n- Conference organizers\n- Open source maintainers\n- Com
 munity managers\n- Volunteer leaders\n\nParticipants will evaluate their o
 wn communities\, identify areas for improvement\, and design concrete chan
 ge that they can take back and apply.\n\nEach participant walks out with:\
 n- a practical assessment of their own community\n- a framework for identi
 fying strengths and gaps\n- a concrete experiment to improve participation
 \, retention\, and leadership development\n\n_The Experience Is the Commun
 ity_ is one module in OCL (Open Community Leadership). You can run this wo
 rkshop yourself. Adapt the timing to your community.\nFree to use\, adapt\
