The civic project 'No economic recovery without cities [& citizens]' (*) is launching a challenge of creating a global list of 'blogs [or sites] of streets, neighbourhoods, villages or cities’ promoted by citizens or groups of citizens that whish to think collectively about the future of the places they live and/or work.
The initiative is developed under the spirit of '2011 European Year of Volunteering to promote more active citizenship’ (http://europa.eu/volunteering/) and seeks to involve citizens and groups of citizens worldwide.
The provisional list can be found here: http://noeconomicrecoverywithoutcities.blogs.sapo.pt/31893.html.
We appreciate all the help
you can give in spreading the idea!
Best regards
