Why are there broad online social and professional networks, but none by and for NGOs?

How do I get people to connect with relevant knowledge... online?

How do I increase my understanding of the relationship between Nature and Poverty?

how does poverty relate to nature?

who works on this subject?

I do?

do others have good ideas?

can my ideas help others?

how many are there around that could too?

IUCN NL decided to build an online hub for those questions...

it convened 18 Dutch organisations to start with...

it connected with its global partners

with them Natureandpoverty.net was conceived...

and with them it chose its first themes

in 4 continents a network started to grow

and slowly the energy increases...

people and ideas are connecting...

and now we go global

a growing practitioners network

north and south

and now this portal appears...

for you to...
