The Problem
I am trying to create a forum through which political activists can interact on an academic/intelligent scholarly level in order to exchange their ideas about what they think the future of Libya should hold. I want this to be a resource for revolutionaries in Libya to use in order to make the best, informed decisions about how the future government of Libya should be formed.
Plan of Action
The first thing that had to be done was to form a basic website to explain my project and give it exposure. After the blog was created, I posted it on Twitter in order to generate a following. Now, I am in the process of collecting and editing articles from various individuals in order to begin the process of discussion. I will need to get those translated into Arabic so that they will effectively help Libyans overseas who are in the process of building the new government. Next, I need to enlist volunteers to edit and translate, to set up a website through which people can submit articles for publishing on my website, and to spread the word about my efforts. Lastly, I hope to present this website as a resource to be used by the National Transitional Council in Libya and other various Libyan political activist groups within the United States and Libya.
