Memoria Viva

According to Nicolas Haeringer and Martí Olivella,

Memoria Viva’s team was created from the IC Content and Methodology Commission (CMC)’s work teams. This team was in charge of facilitating the interlinkages, at the moment of the WSF 2005 registration, to 50 build up its written memory, through the Proposal Panel system, to build a website capable of becoming the Memory webpage of all World Social Forums and made accessible to receive information from others Forums. It is a small team made up of Brazilians, Catalans and the French and financed from November to March by CCFD and ESF 2003 funding association. The 4 CMC Brazilian facilitators were in charge of the political and institutional direction of the project. Memoria Viva is organized around a web site, a database and a mailing list (which is recorded) and it communicates mostly through Skype.<ref>Information for Social Change Number 24</ref>
