This blog already has an expiring date. It is not meant to take over the blogosphere of social movements and online activism. No, this blog will for a few weeks dig deeper into the social movements we don’t know and analyse the ones we do.
During its lifespan, this blog will provide you with critical discussions on the actual offline results of online efforts made by social movements, allow fruitful interactions with you who is visiting us and introduce you to the indigenous movements you’ve never heard of before.
Make sure to subscribe to our posts, follow us on Twitter and don’t forget to leave a footprint. We encourage interactions through comments and shares and are looking forward to hear your thoughts on our topics!

Working for various governmental bodies, international development organisations and local municipalities, we will not tell you our names and are blogging under pseudo names. We are, however, a widely spread bunch of ComDev students, with a joint interest in social movements and online activism.
