HOWTOPEDIA, the Encyclopedia to Know How To

Information, education, formation and know-how are vital elements for empowerment: Knowledge does increase individual freedom. Internet is a powerfull media, but very few sites are oriented toward practical know-how. When they are, they are quite inaccessible in the jungle of institutions and interfaces.

HOWTOPEDIA is a diffusion platform of practical knowledge and simple technologies, ie. technologies that are easily explainable and usable by individuals or small communities.

HOWTOPEDIA will help reinforce the collaboration and knowledge transfer between organizations and individuals accross borders. HOWTOPEDIA encourages small scale sustainable development by facilitating the dissemination of appropriate technology and stimulating the use or the discovery of local ressources.
