| | 3 | The Transition Network's aim is to "Transition Network's role is to inspire, encourage, connect, support and train communities as they self-organise around the [[http://www.transitionnetwork.org/support/what-transition-initiative|transition model]], creating initiatives that rebuild resilience and reduce CO2 emissions." |

| | 5 | The main Transition Network website (www.transitionnetwork.org) helps by: |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | * raising awareness of the transition model, and encouraging more people, towns and cities to follow and develop it; |
| | 8 | * allowing people and organisations in the movement to share news, resources and training events with each other; |
| | 9 | * helping people to access practical training and support - formal and informal. |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | The main focus of the website is on information and news sharing. Some tools for discussion and collaboration are provided, but the "pull" to develop full-scale social networking tools has so far been resisted, in favour of providing tools to help people meet up in real life (aka. "[[http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/M/meatspace.html|meat space]]") for their socialising and networking. |
