			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Knowmore.org is a site that gathers information on corporations and their products, in order for people to have better and informed choices.</p>
<blockquote><p>We are a grassroots, web-based community dedicated to chronicling and resisting corporate attacks on democracy, worker&#8217;s and human rights, fair trade, business ethics and the environment. Our shared goal of a more informed and conscious consumer is being accomplished via this website: a vast database of easily searchable corporate and political info designed to aid responsible citizens, progressive thinkers and activists.</p>
<p>Ethical Consumerism is an important movement toward corporate reform, through which individuals recognize their own role in systems of oppression, and take personal steps toward resistance and  positive change.</p></blockquote>
<p>They site rates the performance of a company in five different areas or <a href="http://www.knowmore.org/wiki/index.php?title=Issues">issues</a>: workers&#8217; rights, human rights, environment, political influence and business ethics.  Knowmore was conceived and founded by independent hip hop artists B. Dolan and Sage Francis.</p>
<p>Find how you can <a href=" http://www.knowmore.org/wiki/index.php?title=Involved">participate in this project</a>.</p>

Essentially, it functions as a large, horizontal network of solidarity and mutual aid. If a company wants to ask for a loan, it has to be involved in the project first.</p>
<p>It has only presence in some parts of Spain, mainly Catalonia, where it was born, Aragon, Andalucia and Madrid, with plans to expand soon to other areas as Galicia.</p>
