Shape the Network – Alumni Global Contest

“Shape the Network – Alumni Global Contest” is a global, inclusive, and collaborative contest where every member of our community (oikees & Alumni) can participate and create a vision of the alumni network.

Through the Alumni Global contest, we offer you the possibility to design, vote and implement the way you think should be!

Contestants are to upload their vision for the network and let the oikos community decide on the winners.

See more details through the tabs below. 


CONTEST OVERVIEW - WHY NOW?

oikos has a long history, spanning over three decades, Throughout the years, oikos has changed a lot and even more so in recent years. Last year, the previous board questioned the status quo and adapted our governance model.  

As a result, we updated our constitution and governance model. The novelty of the updated model lies in “how” we interact with our community.

These changes make it easier to try out new methods and work with experimental tools, which is why we’ve created the oikos Alumni Global contest today. 

Our goal with the contest is to give you more space to speak, be engaged, and shape the way things are done. We want to give our community the space to co-create their own identity, experiences, and structure. 

This is a new, experimental exercise hoping to accelerate the structuration of the Alumni community as to be able to increase our impact altogether.
