We will be delighted to receive more information to put on this website!

Before sending it, please read this section about what can be added to the site.

Information Access

The website is not confidential to ECEN members but is accessible to anyone.

There are four places to put information:

1. The Notice Board is a page where anyone in the network can "post" information or requests, or put an answer to someone else's question/request.  Please share your knowledge and experience by looking regularly at the Notice Board to see what's on and to answer questions people may have. This is an important role of the Network. See instructions for putting material on the Notice Board.

2. Pages about Organisations. ECEN is a network of individuals who represent various churches and related Christian organisations. Any of these organisations may put information about its environmental work on a page of the ECEN website, under the heading Organisations, and may change it as often as it wants. If your church or organisation has its own website, we recommend that you just put a summary paragraph on the ECEN website with a link to your own site.

3. Pages about Coalitions and Issues. As the work of the coalitions develops, we will want to keep adding information about what they are doing. Each coalition should find someone who will be responsible to see that material is prepared for their section of the website. The ECEN Webmaster will primarily act as an advisor, as the means of putting the information on the site, and as the one who arranges for the necessary links to be set up.

4. Other Sections of the Website. The ECEN Webmaster will remain responsible for all the other parts of the website.

Here are some general guidelines about what is and is not suitable content.

For issues of policy, any material to be included on the website should make clear where the views are personal opinion and not necessarily of those of ECEN. In general, ECEN policy statements can only be made by the ECEN Assembly. This is especially important for certain sensitive areas where there are differing views within the churches.

We also need to keep the site for its specified purpose and will exclude material that is not explicitly related to an environmental issue. At the moment, non-human genetic engineering is included in the subjects dealt with by ECEN, since it deals with our relationship to creation, but human genetics and embryology is excluded since this is medical ethics rather than environmental ethics. Similarly peace issues would not be included unless there was a strong ecological dimension involved.
