Activism
10 tactics for turning information into action shows how rights advocates around the world have used the internet and digital technologies to create positive change. The 50 minute film will be launched at the Front Line Club in London, in December 2009 with a series of screenings worldwide. It is accompanied with a deck of cards featuring tools, tips and advice to help you plan your Info-activism action. The 10 Tactics project website will be launched in November.

This is a great post about how information is helping activist work within their cause. If you visit Thinkhaus’ blog http://blog.thinkhausdesign.com you will see our own thoughts about Information Activism. We believe it is a prime example of how graphic design can craft this information in a manner that will bring about action for an important cause.
