Empathetic innovations for closing the social technological gap: Honey Bee Network Model
Inclusion of bypassed spaces, sectors, skills and social segments in developmental agenda has rightly engaged the attention of world technology leaders. But this inclusion in the true sense, may not happen unless we begin to learn from grassroots innovators and communities and blend formal and informal S & T systems. This has been the mission pursued by The Honey Bee Network, a social movement for the last twenty five years. The heuristics of sustainable frugal innovation will not emerge from a jugaad (makeshift) mentality. These will require an empathetic understanding of affordability, accessibility, availability, rejuvenability, durability and circularity of products and services. Designing new solutions by building upon artefactual, metaphorical, heuristic and gestalt aspects of innovation will fertilise our imagination, enrich scientific inquiry and result in reciprocal, responsive, and responsible relationship with knowledge rich- economically poor, creative communities.

Fred Yang was born in a small village near the river in the distant hills of Huaihua, Hunan. After University in Hunan, Fred left his home province for the promises of adventure and development in Shanghai. He enjoyed some success as a high school English teacher for eleven years. Later he worked in large western firms in Property Management, but in his success Fred was haunted by one question - "Why am I doing this?" In 2008, propelled by this question, Fred and his wife decided to move back to his hometown to work the land as an organic farmer. After the first year, Fred was convinced that this was was his calling.
In this presentation Fred talks about his 'Rainbow of Hope' project that connects Shanghai families to rural villages. through regular deliveries of organic produce from the countryside, allowing the people of both locals to share the land, resources, culture, and food.

The innovations for and from grassroots are both important but former get more attention than the latter.

Idea is to develop photo essays of innovators who have helped in eliminating child labour or enhancing income of their parents so that children are sent to school and not work. We are aware that technologies alone may not eliminate child labour but they can facilitate the conditions for that to happen, and in some cases help in elimination, as it happened in the present case. sristi invited photographers who wish to join hands in this effort.

Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

6. We have Choices
• Do we walk on this root bridge, made by
people, their knowledge, or navigate our way
on a modern bridge, staircase or do both
• Bridges between formal and informal science,
technology and innovation systems
• Tracking bridge development rather than just
what lies on each side of the bridge,
• Tracking the river of life which is not being
illuminated by both the banks equally
7. Way ahead
• Longitudinal research: building theories and
models for tropical countries
• Working plans in Forest to focus on
annuals/herbs more than just the timber
• Rethinking plans for in situ value addition
• Innovation mapping, supporting and seeking –
challenge awards
• Forest-guards/village youth/ to become eyes and
ears for mapping community knowledge
8. • register of old trees and making CHILDREN
custodian of conservation
• Linking post offices, Railway and Nrega etc.,
with mapping the ecological mind of masses
• Crowd sourcing for Climate change
perceptions
• Revitalizing cprs e.g. bird feeding platforms,
lakes, grazing lands
• Engaging with tribal youth through a new
social contract
9. BIODIVERSITY BASED KNOWLEDGE
SYSTEMS AND GRASSROOTS
INNOVATIONS:
– In-situ value addition: One of the major reasons for
persistent poverty, social strife and despondency
among local tribal and other communities living in and
around forest regions is almost lack of in-situ value
addition in various biodiversity based materials. Some
people suggest that the relationship of the state with
these regions is almost like internal colonialism.
Several steps have been taken in the past by DST,
MOEF and MORD to develop technologies for
vegetative dyes, oil of non-edible and edible tree
based oil seeds, etc. However, complete value chain
remains to be established.

19. Building Value chain through
mind, machines, and markets
– In 12th Five Year Plan, one should have aimed at 50
per cent reduction in the trade of raw material unless
valorized locally. It will require development of post
harvest processing machinery, fractional distillation
apparatus for generating library of phytochemicals
and herbal extracts, electronic catalogues and a
vigorous partnership with private sector to generate
value added supply chain. NIF can try to leverage its
MOU with Futures Group, Yuwan longlife pvt ltd and
R and B, dsm etc., to create market for value added
innovative products developed through this
programme.
20. – NIF wishes to partner with NBRI and other related
institutions for validation and value addition in at
least 5000 distinctive claims of local communities
per year . This will include energy and other
mechanical and electrical technological
innovations as well.
– NIF would help in filing at least 500 patents per
year, some as defensive patents
21. Dissemination
– Dissemination of socially useful public domain
technologies developed by the grassroots innovators ( and
may be others in due course) through mass channels like
postal or railway department as mentioned next; but also
through Krishi Vigyan Kendra network of ICAR. Unless large
scale demonstration/trials takes place, demand for even
proven affordable technologies cannot be generated.
Similarly programmes/campaign on radio/TV/print media
may be planned for creating wider social awareness and
results on the ground. Resources for widespread
demonstration and trials don’t exist. Assumption is that
some solutions exist, but resources don’t, hence the need
for a vigorous beginning
22. Railway network
•
• Mining the minds of masses: Massive
engagement with masses for sourcing and
sinking ideas
– About 15 to 20 million people travel by train every day
and yet we have not harnessed their imagination for
generating ideas to solve problems of every day life.
Nor have we shared with them the ideas that they can
use without much transaction costs and expert
knowledge. It is proposed that a partnership is forged
with Indian Railways to source and spread ideas for
larger social good.
23. Postal network
– There are one lac post offices and about 6.5 lac inhabited
villages. There is no better way of mapping the creativity
of the masses than engaging with the postmaster and
postman, the most credible grassroots functionary. All the
open source technologies can be shared through wall
newspaper, Bluetooth, broadcasting stations using mobile
networks, door-to-door survey by the postmen and
women with incentives for every accepted innovation and
/or traditional knowledge practice. Never before a
civilisational society has attempted a bigger engagement
with grassroots. Since this is aimed at triggering
experimental ethic and entrepreneurial culture, the role of
government is to enrich the choices of local communities
to try things out at their level with very low cost of failure.

30. Climate change, poverty, biodiversity
“Overwhelming scientific evidence implicates greenhouse gases generated by
human activity in changing the global climate. Simultaneously, record
numbers of people subsist in poverty and massive biodiversity losses
continue largely unabated. Making matters worse, these challenges
reinforce one another. Climate change can exacerbate poverty and
accelerate biodiversity loss. Poverty often forces local people to exploit
their environment unsustainably. And degraded environments in turn can
contribute to poverty and hasten climate change”.
First ever standards linking climate change, biodiversity and poverty seek global peer review,

30050.html
31. Process:
The biodiversity is high in the rain forests,
mountains, some of the arid and semi arid
areas, humid areas, primarily due to diversity
in soil, climate and other physical and social
structures.
32. Why do markets for diversity not arise?
( except wine, cheese, honey to some extent)
Can innovations help?
33. Why demand for diverse colors, tastes, shapes and
qualities of natural products not exist?.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae diversity reflects human history,
JEAN-LUC LEGRAS, DIDIER MERDINOGLU, JEAN-MARIE CORNUET,RANCIS KARST, Molecular
Ecology,
16 (10) 2091-2102, May 2007
• Fermented beverages and foods have played a significant role in
most societies worldwide for millennia.
• To better understand how the yeast species Saccharomyces
cerevisiae, the main fermenting agent, evolved along this
historical and expansion process, we analysed the genetic
diversity among 651 strains from 56 different geographical
origins, worldwide. Their genotyping at 12 microsatellite loci
revealed 575 distinct genotypes organized in subgroups of yeast
types, i.e. bread, beer, wine, sake. Some of these groups
presented unexpected relatedness:
40. • However, up to 28% of genetic diversity between these technological
groups was associated with geographical differences which suggests local
domestications.
• Focusing on wine yeasts, a group of Lebanese strains were basal in an FST
tree, suggesting a Mesopotamia-based origin of most wine strains.
• In Europe, migration of wine strains occurred through the Danube Valley,
and around the Mediterranean Sea. An approximate Bayesian
computation approach suggested a postglacial divergence (most probable
period 10 000–12 000 bp). As our results suggest intimate association
between man and wine yeast across centuries, we hypothesize that yeast
followed man and vine migrations as a commensal member of grapevine
flora.
41. Five key lessons from the experience

48. Grassroots to global( G 2 G),
new mantra
• So far the globalisation has meant generally squeezing of
spaces for small innovators and entrepreneurs. It has been by
and large a one-way street. The Honey Bee Network has been
trying to reverse this process. It is trying to create a new
ethics and institutional culture in which grassroots
innovations developed by often uneducated or less educated
or valorised to address global as well as local demands.
• Already the innovative products from Indian grassroots have
reached five continents. But, a great deal remains to be done.
•
49. Poor not just as consumers alone, but as
providers
• the mechanism of mentoring small, scattered and disconnected innovators
without access to much education, banking or communication systems is not easy.
Distributed mentoring is a challenge that we have to meet, if Grassroots to Global
(G2G) has to become an international reality. In other words, if triangle of linking
innovation, investment and enterprise has to be formed across the world, then
transaction costs of each actor will have to be reduced considerably using on-line
and off line platforms (see Tianjin declaration, China, May 31, 2007,
www.sristi.org).
• Assume that a Norwegian entrepreneur selects an innovation from India and
wants to set up an enterprise in South Africa with investment from say, US, then a
G2G model would have come about. Likewise, if entrepreneurs in developed
countries can find applications for ideas of grassroots innovators in third world,
then a poverty alleviation model will emerge which would look at poor as provider
of solutions. Diversity, development, dignity will manifest when ethics, equity,
excellence, efficiency, empathy, environment and education fuse.
