The vision and mission are currently being developed. These are recent drafts.

Sharing knowledge to build rich, sustainable lives.

We build the infrastructure, and help make the connections and populate free content to effect that vision. One of our main goals is to be the living resource library of individuals and organizations working towards a sustainable, healthier future, so that efforts can be spent evolving instead of duplicating past efforts.

-<big>We at Appropedia passionately believe in the ability to easily share and find information so that each of us can focus our time and energy where it will have the most impact.  Appropedia takes on the administration of collaboratively characterizing problems, solving problems, organizing information, project examples, best practices, how tos and authors, allowing [[Sustainability]], [[Appropriate Technology]], and [[International Development]] organizations and individuals to focus on what they do best.</big>

-The Appropedia Vision is that by reducing or even eliminating the costs of working together, the community of people and organizations that seek to make a difference will quickly shift from ad hoc collaboration to a deeply collaborative approach.  We at Appropedia believe that this deep collaborative approach is both possible and essential to addressing the significant sustainability gaps that humanity is now coming to acknowledge.
