Welcome to the SMART Civil Society Organisations Ning!
The SMART CSOs NING is an Online Community exploring effective civil society strategies for the Great Transition to a sustainable society and economy.
The underlying premise of this work and the community is that current CSO strategies to catalyse the shifts required to a sustainable society are not working. Much more radical transformative change strategies, drawing on cutting edge thinking and practice in multiple disciplines and across disciplines, are required, if CSOs are to really play their role in helping humanity to successfully meet current challenges. Discussions on this site will also feed into the Roadmap report which will capture the latest thinking and practice.
We invite you to join any of the five themed Discussion groups that are relevant to your interests and activities. Here you can add your thoughts to an existing conversation or start a new thread. Please make sure that you introduce yourself by placing a photo and information about your work and ideas on your My Page.
Thank you for joining us on this journey of exploration to find and co-create thinking and practice to transform CSOs into the powerful agents of change we know they have the potential to be. We hope we have created a hospitable and inviting space for you and look forward to inspiring exchanges and conversations with you!
If you're new to this site and NING please take a look at our mini-guide to get you started: Miniguide. This includes more information on how the site is structured and its purpose as well as more general information on using Nings.
For more help and advice, please contact our platform host Michael who will be very happy to help you!
