INTERCITIZEN 1 2 FOR HUMANITY EXERCISE (IFHE)

IFHE 1: ARE YOU ALREADY COLLABORATION GUIDE For Network X?
To see how far we can remove degrees of separation in the greatest open space races humanity has ever challenged- we have IFHE's - here's an example; suppose one of us comes across a network that could connect many of our networks. First we we ask : is anyone already a member of this network and preperaed to give a group of us a guided tour. If not, is there a way a group of us can make a visit and make a quick joint assessment
Here's a real-time example. I recently got invited by Unesco's magazine editor of the Tower of Babel to join his explorers' in activism network. Is anyone here already part of that? If not, can a group of us explore the bookmark he sent me to review the potential of the invitation: http://www.unesco.org/shs/shsdc/journals/humanities-culture-society.html
