Ourmedia.org, “the global home for grassroots media”, have kicked off 2006 with a strong focus on developing and building their Learning Centre, which is described as:

Welcome to the Digital Media Learning Center. In the coming months we’ll be building out a rich, up-to-date educational resource for everything you wanted to know about grassroots media. See below for some preliminary topics. Please volunteer to help the project become richer. Experts, educators, amateurs and others have agreed to contribute to this democratic knowledge database. All contributions will be shared under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License, and we hope that other sites will republish bits and pieces of this project. We encourage video and audio submissions as well as text. Here is an initial list of topics we’ll be tackling. Let us know if you’d like to contribute to an entry, or if you’d like to become a topic editor.

This is a really exciting development and potentially a wonderful hub for grassroots media and digital learning to come together.  The Learning Centre is currently being planned, discussed and built in the Learning Centre Wiki and I’m in the process of getting involved in building this new resource.  If you’re interested, why not visit the wiki and get involved?
