Social media and the digital activist – getting started with IJCentral

Would you consider yourself an activist?  How about a digital activist?  I probably wouldn’t.  But wait, are those who are active building communities in social media all considered digital activists?  Maybe I’ve been an activist all along just waiting for a cause to find me (which it did).   So at least for the next week, I’m a digital activist and project champion for IJCentral.org.  What a talented group of people passionate about an important cause! I’m honored to be working with them and can’t wait to meet up with this team next week at the N2Y4 conference!

So let’s get started… first, the cause: International justice.   Check out this movie trailer for “The Reckoning”, by Skylight pictures.  AMAZING!

Next, collaboration… what can you do to help out?  For now, check out the site IJCentral.org.  Stay tuned for a list of action items and new enhancements to the site.

Over the next week I hope to share with you a LOT more on the IJCentral story as well as the power of social media for global engagement!
