Collective Intelligence

In the last few years, the concepts 'the commons', 'crowdsourcing' and 'crowdfunding' have adquired a new meaning thanks to the social media. On the Internet we can find many pages with the objective of collecting money and people in order to support different projects that want to change our world for better.
On this prezi presentation is explained the meanings of these words with some examples and videos, really enjoyable

PRACTISE 10 on Prezi

At my class of Communication and Citizen Participation, I have had to research into these sites, which make an important job in our society. One of them is the NGO 'Hazlo Posible' (http://www.hazloposible.org/). This organization tries to motivate (in an innovative way) the social interaction and participation in solidarity causes using the new technologies. You should take a look to its page http://microdonaciones.hazloposible.org/, where you can get information about their different projects of crowdsourcing in which you are able to colaborate.

I hope you found it usefull and interesting!
