GREEN BOOK Project Overview September 2013 | Version 1.0 Project Description: The Green Book, also known locally as the Green Directory, is a project in development which transforms research and data into a searchable directory of not-for-profit environmental organizations in the community. It is the first and most comprehensive directory of its kind, encompassing over 70 organizations locally, and a preview was first unveiled at #WRENE2012. reen • Objectives: • Develop a cohesive, research based database which organizes local environmental organizations to easily facilitate connections and map out the collaboration efforts within the environmental community
GREEN BOOK Project Overview September 2013 | Version 1.0 • Immediate Needs: • The database is complete in the sense that the information is compiled, however still to be developed and refined further is its “community value” - how to organize the information in a way that it will be the most useful to the needs it is fulfilling. • Develop specific criteria to suggest what defines a "Green organization“ to become a participating member • To evolve and include for-profit organizations, a need clearly needs to be defined and justified, along with the purpose it will service, and what it is not • YOU, the environmental community, keeping us informed of new groups or changes in existing groups! • Next Steps/Roles: • SPCKW is continuing to provide and manage knowledge development • Green Rocket is facilitating the development of the project and its connection to and use by the community • Following #WRENE 2013, we will regroup and initiate a kick off meeting to continue momentum!
