Thanks Robert for taking initiative. My main interest is to explore the role social media can play in initiating and sustaining collective action to foster social change and overcome problems such as climate change and poverty.
On SustainableTeams <http://sustainableteams.org/about/>, I share the bits and pieces of information I find related to this interest, and as part of Radical Inclusion <http://radical-inclusion.com/> I support organizations (with 6 other *Radicals*) to integrate virtual tools into their collaboration structures and processes. I also support OpenKollab<http://mudball.net/openkollab/>, which is building technologies (tools, structures, processes) to connect projects to solve large scale social problems. Prior to working on SustainableTeams and Radical Inclusion, I coordinated and helped shape several organizational networks and communities of practice in the area of socio-economic development focusing on the global South. These networks include the CGIAR Systemwide Program on Collective Action and Property Rights <http://www.capri.cgiar.org/>, the Livelihood Support Programme of the Food and Agriculture Organization<http://www.fao.org/sd/dim_pe4/pe4_040501a_en.htm>, the International Land Coalition <http://www.landcoalition.org/>, and the International Association for the Study of the Commons <http://www.iasc-commons.org/>. Together with my wife, I am in the middle of a personal project to redefine the way we live. The goal is to find a lifestyle that allows us to have enough (Suficiente <http://almeidadohrn.com> in Portuguese) and that is yet tune with nature instead of exploiting it. The first step will be a trip along the Brazilian Northeast Coast (starting in a couple of weeks) to get to know projects and people who are already living *Suficiente*. Looking forward to reading more intros. Stephan--
