This is the promo video of this years Blog Action Day which will be held at October 15. Blog Action Day is an annual nonprofit event that aims to unite the world’s bloggers, podcasters and videocasters, to post about the same issue on the same day. Aim is to raise awareness and trigger a global discussion.
This year it is all about poverty. At Osocio we post almost weekly about poverty and of course we participate. The aim of the event is about mass participation.
Bloggers can participate by publishing at least one blog post, podcast or video about poverty on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 and/or by contributing to Blog Action Day 2008 partners TheGlobalFund.org and Kiva.org.
