Citizen Media and Underrepresented Languages
There is a growing movement emerging where members of underrepresented language communities are increasingly recognizing the great value in revitalizing their native language through the opportunities provided by technology. Through the use of participatory citizen media and web 2.0 tools, these individuals are building communities around the common use of these under-represented languages and helping to encourage the next generation of speakers.

Blogging Positively
The "Blogging Positively" working group seeks to support individuals and organizations interested in using citizen media as a way to raise awareness and hold conversations about the issue of HIV/AIDS around the world.
Case Studies of Citizen Media Outreach
Rising Voices is featuring projects that are engaging others how to tell their stories through the use of citizen media. The case study blog posts will feature conversations with the project founder/coordinator and participants, as well as a round-up of created content. These blog posts will hopefully help others that are currently implementing or would like to implement a citizen media outreach project to learn from others doing similar work.
