GF Volunteer Editors - 2010
Editors agree to commit at least ten hours of time, in bits and pieces over the calendar year to:
1) add resource entries, new pages, or structural edits to the GF wiki, per their background and interest,
2) improve foresight-related entries in Wikipedia or on Wikiversity,
3) do network-building activities (finding other futurists and inviting them to join our online communities or act as editors).

Thank you all so much for your help in building this public foresight resource!


Like to join our GF Editor community? Just send a message to John Smart (johnsmart{at}accelerating{dot}org) saying what resources you'd like to help build out on the wiki, and when you can start your volunteer commitment. Thank you!
