Wikipedia project

This one off project has a number of useful purposes. We (somefolks from the UKASFP community) have chosen to focus on developing a Solution Focused Practice (or SF approaches) wikipedia page. the reason for this is that although wikipedia may not be an ideal research tool, it does provide a useful starting point for anyone curious about SFA.

The SFBT wiki page is currently number one on a google search (out of 43 million hits) when using the words 'solution focused' however this wikipage does not accurately reflect the usefulness of the approach in many other areas.

Therefore, we now have an opportunity to make a huge and significant difference by developing a wikipedia page based on relevant and valid information and also developed from the ground upwards.

We have arranged for a number of passionate solution focused people across the Globe to meet both in person and virtually on the 31st July to develop the wikipedia page.

We will be using some 'open space technology' principles, which equates to, whoever turns up on the day must be the right people, whenever we start must be the right time, when it finishes on the day (but before 4pm!) must be the right time.

We also hope and expect people to join in the project during the day, some people may have a little more time to contribute than others, this is absolutely fine, we welcome all visitors.

So, what can this project offer, for anybody who has a little spare time during the 31st July 10am to 4pm?

Well we hope the project will allow discussions around what SF practice is and what it means to be solution focused, the project will welcome all contributions, therefore each small contribution making a difference on a global scale. Also, because we are using ideas based on open space technologies these may be of unique interest to people organising projects or groups, we can explore this further.

best wishes
