Logos Circle: Zanzibar
Welcome to the first Logos Circle in Zanzibar!
We're excited to host this first Logos Circle in Zanzibar, taking place alongside Zanzalu.
This gathering is part of a growing network of Logos Circles around the world that explore how decentralised tools, local knowledge, and collective action can help solve real-world issues from the ground up.
For this session, we’ll focus on Tanzania’s employment crisis, one of the most pressing challenges facing the country. Our goal is to begin mapping the issue together, get to know each other’s skills and experiences, and lay the groundwork for local solutions that can grow beyond this event.
Everyone’s welcome, whether you’re deeply involved in this issue already or just curious to learn and contribute.
Agenda
Arrival + Opening Circle
Welcome drinks and introductions.
What is Logos & What Are Circles?
A short intro to Logos: the technology stack, the network state vision, and how Circles act as entry points for local action.
Understanding the Employment Crisis
A collective mapping of the problem: what do we know about youth unemployment, informal work, and access to economic opportunity in Tanzania? What’s already being done and what’s missing?
Skills Exchange + Group Discussion
Let’s get to know each other better. What strengths, networks, or lived experience do we each bring to the table? Where could collaboration happen?
Wrap Up + What’s Next
We’ll outline the next steps and invite everyone to the evening session.
Evening Workshop @ Johnnie’s Café (18:00)
This more hands-on session will explore practical responses to the challenges discussed earlier in the day. We’ll break into smaller groups to generate project ideas, sketch out roles, and build momentum toward pilot solutions.
