	== ~~Overview ==~~

	* disintermediate cross cultural development from the government-agency 'industry'
	* create ways to connect on existential issues with opportunities for considered collective support
	* create portable, multi language '''easily re-usable information''' supporting multiple perspectives
	* enable participation of sensitive non professionals
	* connecting people across cultures, for understanding and reconciliation
	* filter system to allow gradual direct connections
	** Focused on finding common elements between people and enriching that connection and understanding, while "helping the poor."
	** Engage dedicated researchers and aid workers, but explore and create direct connection between ordinary people on both sides
	* Explore and enable hubs, go-to people, development of interventions in communities (rather than as a by product of wealthy communities) and low cost devices, for example cell phones that may have internet access

	~~== Description ==~~

	Low cost concept where communities here (and in other countries), are connected to communities in a 'disadvantaged' rural area. Looking at the type of Facebook or other virtual community group where people are interested in issues such as:

	* local farming
	* women's rights
	** birthing
	** business startup
	** interventions
	** independence
	** formal social involvement
	* sustainability
	** recycling
	** building materials and techniques
	* rights
	** representation
	** intermediaries
	* enabling
	** micro loans ([[Kiva]])
	* research
	** knowledge building
	** translation
	* exchange
	** language
	** culture
	** subtitling
	* health
	** telemedicine
	** information
	** nutrition

	Supporting low cost internet-enabled devices and access, try to connect them so they could reciprocally exchange ideas and support (text, images, video, audio), and also nominate individuals to travel back and forth.

	* Local - country ? NGOs?

	~~== Issues ==~~

	* dangerous or naive to try to connect people
	** Use a simple vetting process and social learning and censure
	** don't underestimate groups, which will include diverse points of view
	** professionals are intermediaries

	* not properly connecting to all the stakeholders
	* not having the right team
	* timeline and funding issues
	* competition including government, etc
	* technological wrong turns


	~~== Other ==~~

	~~Ironic element called "SUV Ralley" where government ministers and jet-set aid workers could keep themselves busy while all this goes on.~~
