Involver: How Nonprofits Can Create Video Campaigns for Social Networks.
Natural Areas Association’s (NAA) is developing a model collaborative and networking tool for the conservation community. Through NAA’s proposed mashup, environmentalists will be able to communicate more practical information, at one time, better. Natural areas are “areas of land which have scientific, educational and esthetic value by reason of distinctive natural features. These include areas having unusual plant or animal life and areas having remnants of the original vegetation which have not been disturbed by the activities of man.” – George B. Fell, founder of the NAA and The Nature Conservancy. Natural areas managers who can share recent study findings, new management techniques, methods, and tools will both disseminate and learn from information and help to increase the amount and quality of our planet’s biodiversity. NAA proposes a mashup that disseminates large amounts of constantly changing, comprehensive, technical information, (by emailing website registrants, based on their registered interests, or via a search engine or site search) to anyone taking action. NAA’s website will provide relevant answers and solutions to broad and deep natural areas conservation and management questions.
