Project Dirt

Article Type: News From: International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, Volume 11, Issue 4

Project Dirt is an active online community linking grassroots-level environmental projects. Project Dirt’s general purpose is twofold: to help connect those doing their own projects so they can collaborate; and to enable those wanting to be greener to learn from real people doing real projects. The cornerstones of Project Dirt are: transparency (by ensuring all activity is transparent, people can share in their information); neutrality (which enables members/projects the freedom to act in the way that best suits them); and,tangibility (actual and real projects present the most reliable source of learning).

Project Dirt was set up to help people and organisations collaborate over green issues and make things happen. They are huge advocates of people’s skill, tenacity, talent and passion in making things happen. Details can be seen at: www.projectdirt.com/about
