What's cool in the GTIA Portfolio...
- MIMIC THIS! When you get invited to events 3000 miles away (or 20 of them just across town), use COPY & PASTE with the really interesting events to seed your own community's plans for similar events. Why start from scratch.... Beg, borrow and mimic! More....
- Welcome recently added members. Check periodically to see if friends you have invited have joined.
- Find others members in your hometown, region, state, country. (E.g., Country=Austria or City, State = Vashon, WA)
- Produce a list of members who use keywords similar to your inerests when describing theirs (E.g.,Permaculture, intentional community).

From a different angle -- we have all these groups - many already formed and many more forming every day.
Under the Coalition of the Willing we espouse a notion of open stewardship where we highlight the "space between" projects and groups -- making the field visible, and establishing an opportunity for re-organizing respective efforts.

Les Squires said… - Hi Gini. Great to see you here also. ...The coalition was brought together by Joliet Area Congregation-Based Organized Body (JACOB). Cool Joliet is made up and organized by groups and individuals that reflect the greater diversity of Joliet and the surrounding area; Potluck Democracy, Community Alliance and Action Network and the Universalist Unitarian Church of Joliet... Please feel free here on the U.S. site to have the various leaders of these groups to CREATE A GROUP and provide links to their organizations. This makes them visible throughout the U.S. and sets a good example for similar groups to follow. Welcome!
