Global NVC website
Contents
Web group
There was recently (July 2010) a GCC call about setting up a global NVC website.
One possibility would be to use the existing wikis as the basis of a multilingual website.
The main idea is to put in front (this page) what we agree on (at the beginning it might only be what we guess we agree on !). And put the rest on the associated discussion page. It remains possible to receive email notifications about changes on theses pages.
Anybody wanting the join his forces to this project is welcome, within limits: we would ask that people take care before doing major edits and many edits, that they introduce themselves to the existing group HERE, and understand that they are initially accepted for a provisional month during which we would like them to demonstrate their ability to work peacefully and collaboratively.
First call summary
- Simple phase 1 and then celebration
- News/knowledge site
- Beautiful basic structure
- No/little new content creation - drawing on existing sites
- Possible elements:
- landing page with language options
- signposts/Lonely Planet guide to major elements of the network
- network news translated
- trainers operating in Africa, past present and future + how to contact
- NVC chat/empathy service on the site,
- resources (eg how to write a press release, how to start a group)
- searches by topic or category or geography
- Jeff has lots of links
- NVCwiki integrated
Who would work on this

JEFF - yes, searching for relevant content to link to
JOACHIM - maybe reviewing things, limited energy; partner interested in e-learning
