Community convening tools
Tools for idea generation and problem solving
The word "convene" means "to come together, to assemble as in one body". Convening brings together people representing different interests and perspectives into a discussion over common concerns.
Convening develops constructive thinking and discovers new solutions. Convening builds motivation and the will for common action.
We see Convening as a positive approach towards restoring community, a way to put people and groups in touch with each other and to foster collective decision-making.
DotBoost Technologies has developed the CommunityConvenor platform that ties together the social Web 2.0 technologies so you can pick and choose the tools that support your needs the best. CommunityConvenor combines document management functionality with social networking and user generated content, all in one user-friendly, feature rich application.
CommunityConvenor can equally support a business looking to leverage its organization's collective intelligence or a non-profit looking to unlock and share the ideas and know-how of its stakeholders.
