- Recruit more people to increase what we can do and cut the load on each person.
- Find some list moderators for the Civic Courage list.

- Work through red flags Personal red flags
- Do article on the Civic Courage project for the Australian Altruism Foundation
How about we do the following:
- we introduce ourselves very briefly and say what it was about the idea of promoting courageous civic action that prompted us to respond to my initial email - please post to: Civic-Courage@yahoogroups.com
- we decide what we should do about the award concept. Should we try to add some value to the Turtle Awards? And if so what should that be?
- prepare a how-to guide on identifying issues that would benefit from some sticking out of necks (delay this for a while)
- what else should we try to do?
After we've pinnned down our ideas about the direction of action we can move on to work out what we should do specifically.
Would anyone be willing to take on the role of extracting proposals and discusion arguments from the email contributions to the list? Please let me know as soon as possible. We can collect the material in a Treepad file - to make it easy to explore the core ideas and proposals. I can help people get started on this.
Also, would anyone be willing to talk by phone or email with some or all of the people on the list to see what their feelings and suggestions are? This activity could start as soon as someone is able to get going.
A little bit further down the track would anyone else like to take on some of the work of volunteer facilitation/management?
Does this seem like a good enough plan of action? If not could you let us know asap so we can revise and improve the first round of action steps? Ta.
