Theme	social innovation
Brings	I have a background in cultural studies, technology assessment, and business which enables me to share a unique interdisciplinary perspective on the social condition, the ability to assess innovations, and use business skills and experience for positive change. I also support Forest Ethics (www.forestethics.org), which uses market forces to save endangered forests giving me an inside look at a relatively new strategy for social change.
Seeks	I'm looking to learn, meet people, and find ways to contribute to this and the global community. Plus, I would like to learn how to build Forest Ethics' social, political, and financial capital using the tools that will be showcased.

Brings	...experience with growth from a "traditional" international, grassroots nonprofit towards purpose-centered, principled-based, distributed, learning organizations -- in the field of maternal and child health.
Seeks	...stories from those who are experiencing similar organizational growth and learning as well as tools for expanding/enhancing/supporting these real-life experiences with compatible internet experiences.
