peace

We're aiming to create a Palestine Activist Community site, which would bring together campaigning and awareness raising efforts across the world.

It's a completely volunteer project at this stage but it would be great if there are any Drupallers out there who would like to get involved.

More details are at:

It's still very early days so if you're interested in contributing to a potentially very important project please get in touch (via my profile's contact form).

Cheers,

James

Howdy,

This spring I've been building a drupal website, and although I've talked with a couple folks in the Portland group, I haven't put it out here on the group list, so here it is - http://www.pdxpeace.org

The PDX Peace site is for a new coalition of peace/antiwar/social justice groups and individuals in Portland, formed during the organizing of the peace rally/march on 4/18/07 on the fourth anniversary of the war in Iraq. We're gearing up the website to be a resource for community organizing.

A priority right now is integrating CiviCRM as a organizing database - connected to the login - and be able to collect information from people while they are signing up - I somehow can't seem to manage getting a form from CiviCRM showing up in the registration page (instead of the webform we have now to 'join').

Other obvious 'to-do' items might be using OG for action groups, or use of views/cck, or Panel views for better organized front page items. I'm currently running this site on shared dreamhost server, but but thinking about getting it on an environment that might be better for running civicrm (bryght?).

Any comments, suggestions, ideas/tips or best practices for community organizing drupal websites, would be much appreciated. And if anyone is interested in helping out with the nuts and bolts of CiviCRM or pointing to the right place for information would be helpful.

Hey all,

I'm completely new to Drupal, so I'm not sure if this is the right way to put out a request, but I am part of a group called Friends Without Borders which is bringing about a new approach to world peace through inviting children into the democratic process. It's as simple as writing a letter. Check out our current site: http://www.FriendsWithoutBorders.org

We are heading back to India and Pakistan soon to move forward with Round 2 of this campaign. After that, who knows where it might lead...
