About This Group
Update! This pod is no longer active and will be archived because we have created a shiny new Ambassador Program :)
We recently relaunched the Gaia Ambassador program, asking all previous Ambassadors to rejoin and recommit to inspiring and empowering the community here at Gaia. We know some of you joined the Ambassador program in the early days...(more) and things change! We've changed :) So, we'd love to have you reapply and let us know you're just as excited to help your fellow members and share your goodness and wisdom here.
What's more, we've created lots of awesome tools for the new Ambassador Program including a Manual as well as printable materials and banners to share with friends. There are also resources for activities for your Gaia Gatherings and Ambassador badges that will show up on your profile, letting the community know they can look to you for guidance.

Ambassador Central.
Who Are Gaia Ambassadors?
Gaia Ambassadors are quintessential Gaia members: people who are committed to changing the world by living at their highest potential and inspiring and empowering others to do the same.
What Do They Do?
Ambassadors spread the Gaia word in their local communities, letting other as-yet-undiscovered Gaia Members know about the site. And they're active within Gaia, welcoming new members and sprinkling the pods with their love and wisdom. They can frequently be found at the Ambassador Pod, sharing ideas and successes about how to best practice their work, and supporting each other in their unique personal development.
How Do They Do It?
First, by committing to live at their own highest potential. Gaia Ambassadors know that the way to best contribute to the world involves taking care of themselves first – they know how to take responsibility for getting their needs met and they know their greatest strengths and deepest satisfactions. Armed with this self-knowledge and self-respect, they're able to act confidently and compassionately, using their personal skills – be they social, academic, physical, or spiritual – to help change the world for the better. Some Gaia Ambassadors are dedicated volunteers. Others work as entrepreneurs, determined to realize their own version of right livelihood. Others are parents, raising their children according to their deepest values. There are as many paths as there are Ambassadors.
When it comes to the site, though, their actions are more clear. Gaia Ambassadors serve as the messengers between Gaia and the rest of the planet. They take the tremendous positive energy generated in the pods and between members and scatter it to the world at large, both online and off. They commit to meeting other Gaia members in their local communities, setting up Zaanghas and offering to get together with members in their area. They wear their Gaia t-shirts, answering questions about the communities. They distribute Gaia postcards, alerting as-yet-undiscovered Gaia Members to their new online home. And, as Gaia representatives, they collaborate among themselves to come up with personal projects to better the world, from spreading the news about carbon offsets to promoting social entrepreneurship to eating organic and walking to work. They're an amazing group of people … and they see what's amazing in others.

I would love to have a link where there is a Zaadz on-line shopping cart where we can buy and wear your cool t-shirts. I saw a guy at Whole Foods wearing one and it just looked great!
I would be one of your buyers of a lot of things –such as note paper, pens, framed dandelions…simple things that are so representative of this site's basic purpose. It would be cool if Gaia had an on-line store as well where we could buy organic items.

http://sydney.indymedia.org.au/story/request-aid-people-burma#comment-74738 I have confirmation from the P.M's Office that my letter has been received and posted on the above news media link.' There is some Aid going in now -but still not the huge Foreign Aid assistance. I still say this is disgraceful and all Countries should just GO IN ANYWAY. How many more have to die before the World wakes up to itself???
