GLOBAL ACTIVISM

CAN WE20 CHANGE THE WORLD?

In current times we are realizing the full extent of globalization. We are realizing as well that there seems to be no clear understanding among the world’s leaders as to how to tackle the world’s challenges. Politicians from different nations gather together trying to find solutions, so last at the G20 summit in London.

But also citizens from around the world should do so, thought the initiators of We20. The internet platform We20 provides the facilities for people to organize meetings on specific current challenges. The ambitious objective is for its members to come up with solutions to the global economic crisis. We20 was already promoted on the G20 summit website and it promises its users to create the bridge between them and the G20 leaders. And so We20 members are gathering together in virtual meetings and places such as Second Life, but also in real places and chew over the world’s current problems.

Do you know W20 or are you a current user? Are there events you want to share with the Novinow community? Do you want to share any solutions W20 users came up with?
