The Action Manifesto

Rebooters collaborate on 10 points/ways/methods of action to the worlds corporations, governments and organisations

This suggestion has been merged with Nadias workshop: www.reboot.dk/page/22439/en

(The Rebooters are a unique crowd of practical visionaries, with a collective mass of wisdom that could be - must be - able to come together.

I propose The Action Manifesto - a set of suggestions to the world on how to create action in a world that needs it more than ever.

(This is still a somewhat undeveloped idea - please elaborate if you think it can be developed. I think the greatest challenge would be to make the manifesto workable ...))

Sphere of influence

I like the idea, and would suggest to create these '10 point' lists for different scopes of influence. What can you do to create action directly around you, around local gov, around your organisation etc. (I must admit that I am highly sceptical about the need to use incumbent structures to act though)

Hi Katrine

Ton pointed out that our proposals may be connected, and I think he is right. I like the idea of mapping out spheres of influence for different kinds of action.

I really like your proposal, want to join sessions?
Heres my proposal:www.reboot.dk/page/22439/en

Let's join, Nadia

Maybe the easiest way is for me to make this page point to yours?

Go for it :)
Maybe we should have a chat about what we would like to do in more detail?

The manifesto is missing the most important people, the people

In principle I'm for the idea of this manifesto, however as we're talking about action the most important targets are not corporations, governments or organizations.

We the people are the number one agents for change in this world. In particular small businesses, technologists, writers. The above mentioned 3 targets have vested interests in not changing things.

A manifesto gives some focus

So I think this is a good idea. It would force us to hone in on just what are the most important principles.

Does a manifesto lead to action? maybe that would be part of the manifesto, how to turn the ideas into action.
