Guerrilla Translation, interviewed, along with our friends from Loomio and other great iniciatives at the OuiShare awards blog: "We all belong to at least one community. The intersections between our communities make the world seem a little smaller every day. But the lack of a shared language is still a major barrier between people and communities who would otherwise share ideas and collaborate on common solutions to widespread problems.
Guerrilla Translation was born of a love of sharing. The world of information has changed with the Internet - we share access to a tremendous and ever-increasing information stream. And everything else seems to be changing rapidly, too - in our economies, food and energy industries, and political systems, just to name a few. In order to be an active part of these changes, we have to operate in community."
