OpenIDEO Chapter Application form
Hello!
We are so excited about your interest in starting an OpenIDEO Chapter. We'd love to explore starting one with you and the team you pull together. We’ve built an intentional, supportive process for building a Chapter so that those interested in starting them can feel out if the commitment and opportunity is right for them. Throughout the recruitment process—which was designed by and for Chapter Organizers—we’ll have a dedicated team to help guide you through the steps. First, you'll want to check out the online platform for OpenIDEO Chapters to make sure there isn't already a Chapter in your city. Once you have done that, make sure you complete this form.

If you’re interested in starting an OpenIDEO Chapter in your city, you must first launch an Outpost event. Outposts are a lighter version of our Chapters program. They should be focused on an OpenIDEO Challenge or Program and they give you hands-on experience with building a local OpenIDEO community.

Example: If your Outpost will focus on the Food System Vision Prize, how would you contextualize it for your local community to engage?
