Presentations

A first step to contribute to Open Food Facts is to present it to you friends and family.
You can get on Twitter, Facebook or Google Plus and ask a few friends and family to join the project.

Why present Open Food Facts ?

Open Food Facts relies on citizen crowdsourcing


25 000 contributors have added 850 000 products on Open Food Facts. The database includes products from more than 100 different countries, but the bulk of them comes from France - where Open Food Facts was launched in 2012 - and from a few countries like Spain, the UK, the US and Belgium where we have some very motivated contributors. We need to change that: we need to add products from your country and try to reach a critical mass of products. Of even greater importance, We need to create and develop strong local communities of contributors.

Tokiko komunitateak sortzen

To create this community, we need people who can present Open Food Facts in front of as many different audiences as possible, from the most obvious ones to the most unlikely. In France we have accepted all invitations to present our project, and each time we have quickly connected to the people who attended our presentations. Food is a universal topic of interest that everyone relates to. Explaining how we can better understand labels and easily compare products always generates a lot of interest and enthusiasm.

So could you present Open Food Facts in your country?

Open Food Facts aurkeztea erraza da.

Erraza da. Dagoeneko prest dauzkagu LibreOffice, Powerpoint aurkezpenak itzuli eta zure hizkuntzara molda ditzazun. Open Food Facts hainbat ekitalditan aurkezten duten pertsonen transkripzioak eta bideoak ere baditugu.

Zure aurkezpenaren ondoren galderak eta erantzunak kudeatzen

Jendeak galdera asko egiten ditu normalean, proiektua eta aurkezpenak pentsaraztekoak izan direlako. Ez kezkatu gehiegi:
  • Proiektuari buruz maiz egiten diren galderak dituen orrialde bat dago. Horiek dira sarri egiten diren galderak, eta egiten dizkiguten galderen %90ari ematen diote erantzuna
  • Hala ez bada, beti da posible "Ez nago ziur, baina uste dut…" esatea, edo "Ez daukat erantzunik, baina mesedez, zatoz nigana galdera eta erantzunen ondoren, eta egiaztatuko dut"
Esaiguzu non aurkeztu dezakezun: jarri harremanetan posta elektronikoz edo Slack-en!
