This is a talk I gave about the role that an intimate online community has played in the re-establishment of a town destroyed by ethnic cleansing in Bosnia. The talk was presented at Reboot 9 in Copenhagen, 2007, whose theme was 'Human'. The great thing about Slideshare is that you can't see what an emotional wreck I was whilst giving what is quite a personal talk.

- 32. bootstrapping a town Kozarac has funded and organised its own fire brigade with the help of the diaspora on the forums
- 37. from forum to meatspace (via Holland)
- 38. re-homing kids of the diaspora
- 39. X re-homing kids of the diaspora
- 40. what the creators say (an interview with Svabo)
- 41. “At the start, I could hardly switch the computer on, but even then we saw, through games, the potential of the internet to connect us - in Kozarac and outside Bosnia”
- 42. “The first thought for many people in the diaspora when they wake up in the morning is Kozarac.ba. They have a need for contact, pictures of home, landscape and stories”
- 43. “Emin, a survivor of Omarska, lived in Denmark for 15 years, unable to open up and deal with his trauma. He recently found the site, and people with similar experiences, which brought him out of his shell.”
- 44. some observations 1. online social networks can bridge and repair structural holes that occur in physical world 2. sometimes the virtual world can preserve memories and culture that are under threat in the physical realm 3. remote members and virtual presence can provide real support for local community 4. where there's a will, there's a way ;-)
- 45. what lessons can we draw from this? • SCALE: small, intimate spaces are often the most effective at supporting collective action • COMMON PURPOSE: if people share a need for action, they will tend to be co-operative • HOOKS INTO ‘RL’: using online spaces to build a coalition for action in the physical realm • MOTIVATION: tapping into real needs is the key to promoting positive behaviours
