Question:
Hello Community Tool Box,
First thank you for creating this amazing tool and platform, very inspiring!
And thank you for offering the Community Tool Box "Ask and Advisor" service.
I'm putting together a business model and want to explore incorporating Community Tool Box into the organization.
I would like your help evaluating how to apply the Community Tool Box platform to help train people in the fundamentals of becoming contributing digital journalists.
The concept is based on leveraging the 6 billion people that have access to mobile phones. A core component to the business is empowering people with their cell phones to share with the world what they See, record and stream on their phones and wireless devices.
At Democra-See we want to provide free training of people around the world to give them the skills, confidence and venue to share and report on democracy related events and discussions worldwide with their cell phones.
I believe Community Tool Box provides an excellent opportunity to collaborate with others for this purpose using your tools, resources and formula for success.
The business model is being formulated to allow the sharing of photographs, videos, audio, streaming, etc. Community Tools Box would be an ideal choice for providing curriculum and ongoing education in journalism and democracy.
I'm interested to create a method to train and provide incentives for individuals to actively create user generated content related to democracy.
Do you have the ability to confer with me on the potential applications of Community Tool Box for this venture?
Please let me know if we can schedule a phone consultation with your organization.
Thank you,
Dave McGirr

Hi Dave,
Given the apparent complexity and sophistication of your initiative, I am going to refer you to our Work Group for further discussion. You can contact them by clicking on "Services" at the top of this page and then clicking on "Capacity Building and Participatory Evaluation."
Thanks for contacting CTB. Your project sounds very ineresting and worth more discussion than we can provide here.
