</h2>

2015 is open from
<strong>Monday, September
15th,
2014</strong> to
<strong><s>Sunday, November

</strong>.
</p>
11 <p>This year, the theme of LibrePlanet is
"Free Software Everywhere." We're looking for talks that touch on the many places and ways that free software is used around the world, as well as ways to make free software ubiquitous. Think
"where" in the broadest sense of the word--it's not just geography-based talks we're after. What are some contexts where free software is thriving, and some others where it needs a push? How have you worked to gain a foothold for free software in your company or community? And what about free software on all of the myriad pieces of hardware we use, including laptops, phones, tablets, and even coffee makers? At LibrePlanet
2015, we're taking software freedom around the world, to outer space, and through all kinds of industries, governments, organizations, fields of study, and communities.
</p>
13 <h2>Should I submit a session proposal for LibrePlanet?
</h2>
15 <p>Yes! We encourage speakers of all experience levels to submit a proposal. LibrePlanet is a great place for new and seasoned speakers alike. While LibrePlanet always includes technical talks, our program also emphasizes topics that are appropriate for newcomers. We are especially interested to see proposals from people who use free software or apply its values for social benefit, from academic research to community organizing, education to medicine and the arts.
</p>
16 <p>While we do not provide honorariums for our speakers, speakers are eligible to apply for travel scholarships (see our list of important dates for more info). So yes, please submit a proposal even if you live far away and aren't sure you can afford a plane ticket!

</h2>
30 <li>Sharing a story of how free software has been applied for social benefit
</li>
31 <li>Tackling a threat or organizing challenge facing the free software movement
</li>
32 <li>Demonstrating a new and exciting piece of software or development within an existing software project
</li>
33 <li>Engaging youth, the future of the free software movement. We're looking for proposals for all age groups, from young children, to high school age, to college students
</li>
34 <li>Thinking critically about challenges and opportunities facing the movement, and charting a path to victory
</li>
35 <li>Bringing a key part of free software history to life
</li>
36 <li>Giving newcomers a way to learn about free software principles and philosophy, and/or giving newcomers a way to start using free software in their daily lives
</li>
39 <p>At LibrePlanet, we are looking for sessions that embrace the free software movement's ideals and also its language. For example, successful proposals will use phrases like
"free software" and avoid phrases like
"open source." </p>

Please let us know about the community-building skills you have to share!

450 <p><strong>Individual presentations
</strong></p>
452 <p>Presentations are typically
45 minutes in length. This is an
453 opportunity to talk about your software project, organizing effort,
454 licensing knowledge, or just something you've learned from using free
455 software, with time for discussion. Describe your proposal, your
456 background, how it relates to the conference theme, and what you hope
457 participants will gain from your presentation.
</p>
459 <p><strong>Panels
</strong></p>
461 <p>Panels are typically
1 ½ hours long and are composed of three or more
462 people who want to engage deeply with a particular question, challenge,
463 or theme. Describe your proposal, how it relates to the conference
464 theme, and what you hope participants will gain from your presentation.
465 We encourage you to propose a full list of panelists from diverse
466 backgrounds. In addition to you own biography, please use the
"Presenter
467 bio(s)" field to include biographical and contact information for each
468 panelist and indicate whether you have approached them about
469 participating in your panel. If accepted, we will work with you and
470 connect you with similar proposals. In some cases we may combine
471 proposals or add speakers to a proposed panel.
</p>
473 <p><strong>Workshops
</strong></p>
475 <p>Workshops are generally
1 ½ hours long and are submitted by one or
476 more people who have an intersectional, interactive presentation to
477 share. Workshops take many formats – from software or hardware
478 demonstrations, to workshops for new contributors, to skillshares and
479 tutorials. If you are submitting a proposal for a workshop, please
480 describe the goals and take-aways for the session. In addition to you
481 own biography, please use the
"Presenter bio(s)" field to include
482 biographical and contact information for each panelist and indicate
483 whether you have approached them about participating in your workshop.
</p>
485 <p><strong>Strategic Action Sessions
</strong> </p>
487 <p>Strategic action sessions are generally
1 ½ hours long and provide a
488 space for activists to learn from each other’s organizing work and share
489 strategies, successes, and challenges. Examples of strategy sessions
490 might include: starting a local user group, discussing how to message
491 free software to political activists, sharing PR best practices to
492 promote free software, among others.
