The Research Cooperative was created primarily to promote communication, and giving attention to the causes and consequences of a world recession is surely a good cause, so...
Here is another project idea suitable for our network:
Support a newly formed journal (January 2011) that aims to explore how sustainable and socially-beneficial businesses can help reduce poverty and unemployment.
See the Journal of Social Business .
Support can be offered in various ways:
1. Read the journal, learn from it, and use the ideas.
2. Write for the journal if you have original material suitable for the publication.
3. Offer to help translate journal contents pages and/or articles for the journal to publish, or privately for others who cannot easily read English, but are interested in the journal contents.
4. Offer to translate articles into English for contributors to the journal who cannot write well enough in English.
5. Offer to review or edit articles for contributors to the journal before they are submitted, as a volunteer or as a paid professional.
6. Tell others about the journal and encourage them to read it; and also tell them about the present proposal to support the journal, in the various ways suggested above.
Thank you.
Any further suggestions for this list are welcome!
