Nice idea and some nice views - and a good choice of subject. I do just wonder whether it might not be better to do this by the month rather than the week? Maybe it's because I'm a bit lethargic but by the time I take in that it's 'Orang Week' and start to do something about it .... it will be Desman Week and I'll be even further behind ....

As a compromise, why not by the fortnight?

We'll change the banner at top of the website, and run lots of threads and posts, and encourage lots of photos to be posted in the gallery. We'll as list lots of relevant groups around the world so people can find out more about the subject.

In preparation for each 'Strong Week' it would be great if we could develop activities for at least a week or two in advance as a build-up to having lots of content for new visitors to view and join.

If you've got any suggestions for future a Strong Week (ideally in conjunction with a recognised international awareness week), then please post them here.

Thanks

Stu
