From oil dependence to local resilience

Proven model for effective buycott/boycott organisation

Hi all,

I have developed a model that has been proven effective against plans for corporate exploitation.

 

It addresses the following:

- how to research quickly and gather others knowledge on a specific issue

- how to get people to take an interest by showing them how an issue affects them

- the process of identifying the money trail and establishing who the players are

- what people can do by way of individual action to counter an undesirable plan e.g. mining or water privatisation.

Targeted consumer and public pressure has been effective many times including Bolivias water reclamation and Roll Internations animal testing.

My plan was previously to develop this model (which is presently a mindmap) into an online system.  I believe it can be done quite cost effectively in Drupal.  As I have other priorities right now I just wish to share the model for others to use, either for their personal research or to develop further to assist effective activism.
