We are a part of active citizens network in our region and plan to use the project for learing the social networ skills one from another.

Shooting the video will require at least 10 people from every partner (=50 people), editing the video will engage at least 2 other people from every partner (=10 more people). 10 more will be trained how to use the social media (blogs, twitter etc). It's at least 70 people then. We will maintain the network to help each other (discussion groups, linked twitter accounts, open groups on Facebook etc).
Besides the microgrant funding, what other resources and support are you seeking for your project to ensure its success?
