THE NETWORK NAME?

The idea is that everybody of us willing to do so WRITES here below her/his proposal(s) (name of the network and short explanation/comment) until the 30th of April 2012. In May we will democratically vote for 'electing' which will be the official name of our network for the years to come ;)

Hi,

Could it be without repeating the urban twice Urban_ID: the Identities and Diversities?

I like 'Identities and Diversities' as meaning of ID, also because if thinking about the usual immediate meaning of ID (Identification) it could be read as a sort of provocation: generally attached to 'national' (i.e. national ID card) and to the imposed necessity of being documented/registered/identified it is the sort of document many migrants lack for being entitled to full citizenship/residenceship... hence our Urban_ID vs standard National_ID sounds great for our field of enquiry

I gave my voice to "urban faces"!! Faces could stand for urban landscape and people-users-dwellers. It's, as well, a bit different than what we usually see...

cheers to all of you!!

Hi, I voted for DiverCity...it might be often used, but for me it's still the one that captures best the idea of the network.

Hi! I voted for Urban_ID. I found last Giovanna's argument very convincing (urban id vs. national id). Sorry if I'm late... I forgot the deadline!

I agree with Carlotta's previous comment and Giovanna's reasoning, of course. This urban vs. national is indeed related to current discussions on urban citizenship, the 'right to the city' idea, etc.
I voted for Urban_ID me too!

Voting for Urban_ID

I am changing my vote from MixCity to Urban_ID.
On a different note, I think it would have been easier voting if we had a polling app in the website. This is for future reference because it is probably too late to put up an app for the current vote.

name...always!

Hello to all and sorry for this solate reaction to voting, etc.
I did not vote, because I forgot it :-( I am really sorry for this!!!
However, there is sth I do not understnd! I think that your voting has clearly showed the preference or Urban_ID, as far as I can see from the results in the far-right column.
Then why does our network in the frontpage of he website is called DiverCiy network anyway? Is there sth I missed? It's true that I diappeared for a long ime, but in any case I did not receive any communication from the netwok fo almost a year...

Hope you are all doin well!
