Why DoPeace?

The Limitations of Web Pages (Web 1.0)

One-way communication from Organization to Subscribers

Content is fairly static, generated by the Organization

Opportunity for Community participation is minimal

The Possibilities of Social Networks (Web 2.0)

Multi-way communication:

Organization-to-Community

Community-to-Organization

Cross-Community

Content is dynamic; generated by the Community

Everyone in the Community can Participate

Viral growth attracts new Community Members

Why Now?

Alignment with The Peace Alliance and Student Peace Alliance Vision

Everyone everywhere can see what is happening anywhere within the campaign network

A vibrant, dynamic community will attract new grassroots activists

Community-generated content supplements a lean National staff.
