A sustainability Projects Wiki is now available to all participating projects. This is another feature that any project running under SustainabilityProjects.org has access to. It uses the same software MediaWiki uses to power WikiPedia giving projects the ability to document and collaborate in clear easy to read text.

Have you a Social, Environmental or sustainability focused project?, if so consider using the resources we make available at SustainabilityProjects.org

Including dedicated WordPress Sites, cross posting to other social media environments and the new Wiki. The more Projects we have the more value we get providing new tools for your projects.

SustainabilityProjects.org is an online resource for Sustainability Projects. With an number now on my Agenda the site will no return to an active state. Let me know if you are interested in hosting a project and I can provide;

  • A blog or website (in a wordpress network)
  • Access to a Wiki for documentation or colaboration
  • Automatic reposing of your news to other sites
  • Custom Email addresses – redirected to your email address
  • Participation in a colabteam.net micro-blog and conversations (built on Yammer)
  • A dedicated Yammer External group
  • Help obtaining other features or services such as surveys and mailing lists

and much more as required.

 

We are about promoting Sustainability Projects and since we have take the effort to build resources for our own projects we went a little bit further to enable us to share our resources to promote others.

A number steps are underway to define the systems we require to support open sustainability projects.

This means we are developing a strong underlying project definition so that the results we develop will be useful and easy to use for you and the community.

Here is a draft project scope;

The Provision of an environment in which the general community can co-operate on projects or initiatives.

In effect a Project Management tool that leverages Social Networking and other highly inclusive Web 2.0 Technologies.

Designed to operate on Crowd Sourcing principals the Project Project will differ from standard project management environments in the following way

  • Less formal and structured with less emphasis on individual responsibility to complete tasks but rather by completing tasks by a pool of resources
  • Less emphasis on base-lining and time frames such that project can remain viable if executed over very long periods of time or very rapidly.
  • A structured process by which completed projects are easily turned into detailed project templates for reuse in the community.
  • Each iteration of a project with add to and strengthen the previous similar projects

Before we have projects that others would like to copy we provide a template project to get people up and running as soon as possible.

This site will provide a source for any new project.

Some time in the future we will create more templates to draw from to accommodate projects based on such things as size or major area such as community, environment, sustainability, sustainable homes, sustainable business, permaculture or bush regeneration.

Today the Sustainable Projects Site was started. Still experimental It aims to investigate if a WordPress network combined with a MediaWiki site will support an open sustainability project community.
