Re: [Wikinews-l] World Peace by Wiki?

Dear Wikinewsies, I hope an email to this list is okay as it is about another project, however I think there's lots for all of you to be interested in... Two of us from Wikinews, NGerda and Cmwhite, got a bit sidetracked late last year building a wiki for a youth network called Never Again: http://mdonkin.f2s.com/neveragain. Some may remember that we held a conference last year that was attended by the President of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz ( http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/World_Bank_president_addresses_global_youth_for… ). This weekend, we are holding an experimental Virtual Retreat to try and put together some ideas about building a more peaceful society. We'd like to invite Wikinewsies to join the retreat, particularly as we really need some more people who are not afraid to plunge into a wiki environment! You may also find an opportunity to report on the retreat itself, which will likely have some interesting outcomes and is taking place in Gisenyi, Rwanda with a cross section of Africans and world youth as well as the Virtual Retreat. Tomorrow at 7pm GMT, investigative journalist Linda Melvern (http://www.amahoro.nl/linda/) will be chatting to us about her work on the Rwandan genocide and what has been learnt since (Freenode IRC #Neveragain). Hope to see you there! Best wishes, Nick and Clare _______________________________________________ Wikinews-l mailing list Wikinews-l(a)Wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikinews-l
