</div>'''Appropedia''' is the site for collaborative solutions in [[sustainability]], [[poverty]] reduction and [[international development]] through the use of sound [[principles]] and [[appropriate technology]] and the sharing of wisdom and [[project]] information. It is a [[wikipedia:wiki|wiki]], a type of website which allows anyone to add, remove, or edit content. Registration is encouraged but not required for contributors.

Appropedia has been described as an "[[appropriate technology wiki]]," but it is much broader than that - it is a [[green wiki]], and a wiki for all matters of [[international development]] and [[aid]].  But most importantly, Appropedia is an open site for stakeholders to come together to find, create and improve scalable and adaptable solutions.
