[p2p-research] Fwd: Herbologies/Foraging Networks 26-28th March, Pixelache Festival, Helsinki, Finland

[andrew paterson]

Hei Sam, Michel,
Yes I will write a report of the activities after the festival,  
mostly some time in April..

To answer your question Sam,
There is community except the one 'in the making' of the programme.
As an organiser and producer, I'd like to think there will be more  
people interested in Herbologies/Foraging Networks activity  
afterwards :)

There is a few associated groups/projects to the programme that have  
some potential to support online sharing..

One is the Public School Helsinki network that has recently started  
here, which has an 'Urban Foraging' course integrated with the  
Pixelache theme..

There was also last week a good beginning to this with the  
'Kasvitietotalkoot' (plant info bee) project initiated by Pispala  
Cultural Association, Tampere FI, hosted on the Appropedia server..

http://www.appropedia.org/Kasvitietotalkoot

It seems the group involved (initated from Pispala in Tampere) wish  
to continue to develop their materials there.
I think they made a decent choice of wiki.

Another interesting platform here for traditional knowledge here for  
Finnish speakers is

http://www.wikikko.info/

But I understand that appropedia is merging with ekopedia.org in the  
future,
so this may offer some sustainability for the platform.

My best regards,
andrew
