The InterActivist Network is a collaborative effort, an activist communication resource, an independent media project and a technology skill sharing project.

Through the Info Exchange and Skills Share, we seek to offer new, dissenting and thoughtful perspectives on our own communities and to disseminate information about news-worthy events overlooked or misrepresented by mainstream media.

Though the issues we address within the skills share are specific to our own community, our goal is to inspire national and international conversations about similar issues as they affect other communities.

We built and maintain a network of servers which use open source software to provide activist organizations with some of the technology resources they need to develop their own media projects. These resources include email, mailing lists, web hosting, mysql and a secure chat server and client.

The InterActivist Network is a model for community action using new media and technology to invigorate public dialogue and to inform current debates within our own communities--both local and global.

If you are interested in working with us, want to participate in a skills share, want help in setting up a similar project, get in touch by email at info@interactivist.net
