CENTURY OLD SOLUTIONS
TO CLIMATE CATASTROPHES, AREN’T WORKING.
It’s no secret natural disasters are getting worse, and hitting in places they’ve never hit before. Tornadoes recently tore through downtown Houston TX, in the US. Extreme heat waves in the Philippines caused power-grid failure. Major flooding, across Dubai’s desert sands. Natural disasters are popping up everywhere on earth, in places they never have before, so how do we respond to this when it arrives on our doorstep?
WHEN DISASTER STRIKES, IT TAKES A VILLAGE.
More often than not when you think of natural disasters you immediately think of large centralized orgs like the Red Cross. But there’s a misconception that organizations who effectively responded to the long-term rebuilding & recovery efforts in the aftermath of WW2, are leading the way in responding to the current modern-day needs of communities as they arise immediately during and after natural disasters. They aren’t. They’re simply not structured, or built to. Governments aren’t much different. If you’re in the US, you no-doubt think of FEMA.
The truth is that, governments & large centralized orgs are not equipped to deploy and respond at scale to meet the needs that arise during & immediately after a crisis. Like in the aftermath of WW2, long term recovery and support is what both excel at.
While large centralized orgs play their part in a crisis, it takes something different to meet the needs of the people who find themselves combatting catastrophes brought on by climate change. It takes a village.
We are and have been, that Village. And our village is open to everyone.
WHAT WE DO.
WE DO TOGETHER
WHEN DISASTER STRIKES
We unsilo information by mapping every person, and every organization in need of immediate assistance at ground-zero of a disaster, or crisis. So anyone and everyone can immediate jump in and respond to the needs on the ground.
We unsilo the flow of supplies at ground-zero of a crisis by setting up central supply warehouses and creating supply routes (where there are none) that are capable of supplying every person and every organization in need of supplies at ground zero of a disaster, or crisis. We don’t gatekeep supplies. We distribute supplies, and then we get more.
We create a wider awareness of the crisis and more importantly we provide thousands of ways for anyone to help, over the lifetime of the crisis. From rapid rescue & relief to rapid-recovery — and when we do these things, we’re used by everyone responding to the crisis. Read about our past responses to some of the biggest natural & manmade disasters in US history in our News section.
WHAT WE’RE ABOUT TO DO NEXT.
Add an app for the things above. Take it global, and then unsilo funding — at ground zero of a crisis. Through the use of blockchain technology that rewards the efforts of the Village while allowing everyone to accept donations, and receive Impact Points that lead to roles within the Village.
THE VILLAGE APP
POWERED BY PEOPLE, LEAD BY THOSE CREATING IMPACT.
The Village App will allow you to help communities in the midst of a disaster from the comfort of your home, or from ground-zero. Anywhere on earth — and you’ll be able to earn crypto, and what’s known as ‘Governance’ power, while helping.
