Actipedia

Actipedia is an open-access, user-generated database that is meant to be a place to share, read about, and comment upon experiences and examples of how activists and artists are using creative tactics and strategies to challenge power and offer visions of a better society.

For example, one can read about the work of an artistic activist whose project is dedicated to improving mental health care and inspiring people to care for their mental health. "Disenchanted by the current culture of medicalising moods and emotions, to the degree whereby human beings are seeking psychological and emotional relief from a scientific model that is designed to treat biological disease, Charlotte Claire has created The Babyfacedassassin. Her personal story of triumph over suicide attempts, depressive spells and self-harm, using ways that moved away from psychiatric intervention, motivates her to change the way society views these human experiences and how we can support each other through them." Another example is the posting "On Campus, Opening Up Conversations About Sex", which describes Harvard University (Massachusetts, United States)'s inaugural (2012) Sex Week, described by the author of this post as "a student-run program of lectures, panel discussions and blush-inducing conversations about all things sexual."

Beyond health, other popular topics that people can browse or contribute to include areas such as: art, activism, animal rights, creative activism, education, environmentalism, feminism, politics, protest, public art, street art, and women's rights.
