2nd MBS: Initiatives for Social Media Cultural Dialogue
Wednesday, October 01, 2008
Who are we to define this Mindanawon Consciousness?
In this process, we could be haunted by doubt. Who are we to define Mindanawon consciousness? Isn't this an exercise of power and domination? In reality, that is not what we want to do. We want to look forward a way of speaking about Mindanao, a set of social images that can give us some control on how Mindanao can nurture multicultural understanding, peace, development, and a sense of meaning and identity. We want to generate new collective energies.
Objectives of the Summit
- To strengthen the unity among bloggers in their drive to accentuate the untapped potentialities of Mindanao,
- To encourage bloggers to become more enthusiastic about the Mindanao consciousness,
- To utilize maximum potential of new social media, and
- To foster the entrepreneurial spirit of Mindanawans through blogging.
