There are so many new problems happening everyday.
Complaining does not solve problems, protesting does not solve problems.
There is only so much the government or NGOs can do. Being big and bureaucratic allows them to act fast and raise lots of funds, but they are slow to respond to changes.
We need innovation and people to take actions and accountability.
We all live on the sample planet.

Owning a house unit is a great gift to yourself and your family. A house that you can call "your own home" where you and your family bonds together, share happy and special moments in your life. It's very relaxing and fulfilling to go to your own home after a tedious work day or retire after years of working.
This presentation is from the Performance Marketing Summit (May 15, 2016 in Chicago). Session description: Merchant programs need to support a brand’s audience and overall direction. In 4 steps, you will be able to create a stand out program while providing Affiliates with on-brand promotional tools!
Do Donations, Charities, CSR programs really have any impact long term?
We should rethink the way we give and empower others if we are serious about solving the most pressing problems we face.
There are more problems that we face today than before, following status quo or thinking that billionaires and their foundations will save us is simply a dream that has not been realized and will never be.
Poverty is a complex problems and will not be solved if we let the governments and the rich address it while we watch and send thoughts and prayers.
If status quo does not solve problems, perhaps we need to all try to do our part and look for solutions, try for our local community. It take effort and courage to bring about change.

As the leading Aboriginal learning institute in Australia, it makes sense to reach out to Batchelor Institute with an innovative approach to having Elders engage with children in every primary school in Australia.
This program based on old ways of Elders teaching children, will see the children understand the important role they play in the future of their family, the community, country, and culture.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

anniversary?
8. REAL IMPACT IN
NEPAL IN MAY 2016
Some construction on infrastructure
started.
Some rebuilding on UNESCO sites.
Number of homes rebuilt =
0
9.
10. OTHER PROBLEMS
• Political indecision (Nepal
Reconstruction Agency)
• Unofficial Blockade on Indian border
• PUSHING OF BLAME
• WAITING FOR HELP
11. RESULTS

environment.
• People displaced living in tents
• Farmers living in tents on their
farms, reduced income and food.

• Unequal distribution of support.
12.
13. SINGAPORE HELP
Students from Singapore visited Nepal and
distributed aid.
Supported by Mega Churches, what can go
wrong?
14. SINGAPORE HELP
Students decided not to leave Kathmandu,
and just deliver aid in Kathmandu.
They discovered bibles in blankets.
(Common practice in Relief)
They “helped” to remove it.
15. RESULTS
What do you think when a majority
Buddhist / Hindu country finds lots of
bibles in their capital?
16.
17. MANY PEOPLE WANT TO
HELP, FEW KNOW HOW
Everyone thinks helping is easy.
Most do it out of convenience.
Does anything think about the impact of
their deeds?
Some help out of pity, and they get angry
when they see the recipients have a nice
meal or buy something nice.
19. CAN HAITIANS DRIVE?
Haiti Earthquake 2010
Food donation & delivery.
Trucks of Aid to Port-au-Prince.
5 year old saw the dominican driver
and asked, “Can Hatians Drive?”
20. SCHOOL REBUILDING
Singaporean students decided to rebuild a
school that collapsed in Kathmandu.
Raised funds, bought materials and talked
to a school to help rebuild the building.
21. IS CONSTRUCTION
LOW SKILLED JOB
Do you think you can rebuild a school
structure with cement, cinder blocks, Metal
bars and a zinc roof?
Can you learn this from the Internet?
36. How can we
not use our
gift to lift the
burden of
others?
37. Disaster Response Lies…
• Only experts can help.
• You will be a burden in the field.
• We don’t need anything, we have all we need.
• Do not send clothes or food, send money.
38. We all can respond…
• And guarantee an efficient response…
• Donate Action, not money, not words…
• But how?
39. Disaster Response Basics:
You can be useful in the field if…
• Bring your own supplies and food to the field.
– Or buy them locally if possible.
• Engage the local stakeholders and work for
them, with them.
• Are connected.
• Have independent mobility.
• Listen, learn, respect.
40. Relief 2.0 (what is it?)
• A focus on running the last mile in disaster relief
• through independent units of local stakeholders
and foreign volunteers in the field
• supported by mobile technologies and social
networks
• to fill the gaps created by bureaucracy and slow
response from top-down hierarchies.
41. Relief 2.0 (how does it work?)
• Individuals and organizations report incidents,
needs and requests from the field using their
mobile phones and the Internet.
42. Relief 2.0 (how does it work?)
• These incidents are reviewed, verified, completed,
enhanced and their information spread to others
by individuals and groups on social networks
– Housewives, youngsters, volunteers, anyone.
until they are addressed, solved or matched with
someone who takes care of it.
43. Relief 2.0 (the last mile)
• Small independent units then complete the cycle by
actually addressing those issues and delivering the
response required and supported by the social
network.
50. Disasters create survivors,
they don’t create refugees.
It is the conventional relief system what turns
survivors into refugees.
51. Disasters do not destroy
knowledge or capacity
Teachers are still teachers, doctors are still doctors,
nurses are still nurses, carpenters are still carpenters…
56. Disaster recovery with dignity, inclusion,
generation and distribution of wealth
Businesses working with businesses to get back on track
and jumpstarting the economy to serve people
57. Matching shops and businesses affected by disaster with
same-trade businesses in non-affected areas and
enable collaboration to get businesses
to re-open as soon as possible.
Relief 2.0 B2B
58. It’s not charity, it’s not donation.
Both businesses reach a collaborative business agreement:
36 mth low interest loan, restore inventory, line of credit, etc.
It’s a business deal that preserves their dignity.
Relief 2.0 B2B
59. Relief 2.0 Enterprise
We need to start working with disaster survivors
and enable them as entrepreneurs before they
are turned into refugees by conventional relief.
60. Matching Co-ops from Villages to Local Business Organizations.
Buying van to transport injured to hospitals, and crops to market.
Repaying with agreed upon fair priced barter trade.
Connecting farmers to markets directly.
Relief 2.0 B2V
63. ART IMPACT NEPAL
Leveraging on Arts for Disaster Recovery.
• Sell art to raise funds to build art studio.
• Teach earthquake survivors to make handicrafts.
• Sell handicrafts to increase income for survivors.
• Run international shows to find overseas market.
• Create awareness for Nepal products
• Build residential art studios to allow foreign artists
to come support survivors to learn and teach art.
67. SOLAR FORWARD
Pay it forward model to bring solar panels
to rural areas and earthquake survivors.
Top income generators (people with second
job) will be given solar kit with
responsibility
Light allows them to be more productive
and 4 more hours of light can allow more
income.
68. SOLAR FORWARD
Saving $1 a day, recipients can buy a solar
kit for someone else in 2 months, enabling
them to provide for others what was given
to them.
Eventually, whole village can have light.
69. SOLAR FORWARD
Monitor success, learn from village
dynamics.
Getting NGOs and Foundations to support,
give guarantee for other villagers.
They can pay via installments from regular
banks, US$0.30 a day for 6 months at 10%
interest.
They can build up credit and be integrated
into baking system.
70. There are so many new problems
happening everyday.
Complaining does not solve problems,
protesting does not solve problems.
There is only so much the government or
NGOs can do. Being big and bureaucratic
allows them to act fast and raise lots of
funds, but they are slow to respond to
changes.
We need innovation and people to take
actions and accountability.
We all live on the sample planet.
