>>Volunteer Sought to Establish Online Community Forum<<
Ecology Action is looking for a volunteer to help establish an EA online forum.
This would be a site where individuals from around the world can share their Biointensive projects
and keep up to date on the latest news in workshops, conferences and opportunities!
A similar site for Latin America can be found at http://biointensivistas.ning.com/.
It is operated by Susana Hernandez, our former intern from Mexico, and has been a major source of inspiration
and communication between interns and biointensive practitioners across Latin America.
We are looking for a person with experience coordinating online communities to create an English equivalent
and believe it will be a major factor in enhancing the Biointensive community around the world. Let us know if you, or someone you know, may be interested!
