BUILD THE COMMUNITY
From KLAMediaWiki
The civil society seeks an alternative to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) to promote better trade rules: good for people, for life.
An Internet forum called "Wiki-WTO" or "Wiki-ITO" will be used by a Community of activists, to act upon: the Public, NGOs, politicians, law-makers,... as sketched below 
.
The wiki shall interact with:
- Contributors (Authors/Reviewers/…), producing intellectual social contents
- Translators
- Consumers of the information (Public; Politicians; Law-makers; NGOs….)
- Administrator
- Moderators
- Ennemies
- Each category having expectations as outlined below <upcoming image>:
During the Attac European Summer University in Sarrebrueck 1-6 August 2008, the nascent Wiki-ITO was presented and activists from different countries joined forces.
The upcoming challenge is now to cooperate through the Wiki itself, in such a way that every person contributes what she/he likes on a volunteering basis. What would you like to bring? Below are some possibilities.
