Submission guidelines

Our submission process is designed to be open and flexible. Below are some framing questions to think about as you submit ideas to [freespace] labs.

  • Does your project provide a new product, service, platform, practice or initiative? Does it replicate existing ones but make them more accessible to a different or larger audience?
  • Does your project influence public policy to change public policy to increase the number served or needs addressed?
  • Does it effect systems change, using a comprehensive and whole-systems approach to create a more hospitable environment that allows effective programs to flourish or encourages collaboration among stakeholders
  • Does it factor in future trends and needs as well as short and long term needs?
  • Is it ecologically, socially and environmentally responsible? Does it have environmental, social and/or economic impact? What are they and how will you quantify them?
  • Is it replicable and scalable?
