This document discusses various projects and initiatives by InSTEDD including developing tools for collecting birth complication data in Sierra Leone, running innovation labs in Cambodia and elsewhere, using mobile tools like GeoChat to help health workers in Thailand during floods, and detecting and containing a leptospirosis outbreak faster through discussion on such tools. It also references principles of collective action, data as an extractive industry, the use of mobile information systems in Haiti after the earthquake, and launching high-altitude balloons to inspire new perspectives on Earth. Overall the document touches on InSTEDD's work using technology to help address global health challenges and promote positive change.

Notas do Editor
- Edjez, CTO InSTEDD – we work so communities everywhere can design and use technology to improve their health safety and development. If the digital age is the next ‘iron age’, I didn’t just want to be a good metalsmith - I don’t want to create sword
- We love data – most of world dark – example of basic collection device to get data on maternal mortality, used in Sierra Leone
- In crisis information is critical – here you see inflatable satellite antennas easy to moveAppropriate design is contextual
- At our iLabs we CREATE AND GROW local skills in technology, design, rapid prototyping, research and sciencePEOPLE BUILD THE TECHNOLOGY THEY NEED
- We set out to create a LEARNING SYSTEM that works in the short term and is a long lasting regional asset in the LONG RUN. The Intangibles are key
- AWESOME RESULTS - 31cambo woman negotiating MANO A MANO WITH TELCO CEO for plans and access that exists NOWHERE ELSE
- Apps they design end up being simple, robust, easy, and multi-use. People USE THEM FOR WHAT THEY FEEL IS RIGHT. For example, a health monitoring tool became the prime LOCAL DISASTER RELIEF NETWORK
- Health Foo – EARLY DETECTION EARLY RESPONSE Is key to containing outbreaksIf people are your first SENSORS AND ACTUATORS, creating LOCAL FEEDBACK LOOPS saves livesYou have to LET THEM CREATE THOSE LOOPS
- Unfortunately I think HEALTH IS NOT BEING MANAGED RIGHT –I am unconvinced CORPORATIONS and STATES are appropriate structures to entrust with health as a whole. I think it takes COMMUNITIES
- One of the challenges is DATA THAT HELPS THE GATHERERS – Harvard gets data in THIS province, Stanford in THAT. I see 90% of data collected not helping the sources in the short or long runs.
- InSTEDD ran the backend of the 4636 system in haiti post EQ with TRF; sending messages about clinics, resources, and health tips to population, and evaluation showed 85% BEHAVIOR CHANGE
- We talk about the augmented self, but the lower you are in the maslow pyramid the more critical basic information becomes. To us information helps optimization, to most of the world it can determine LIFE OR DEATH
- Take Burma, an opressive regime with information and cultural blocks that make Orwell’s BIG BROTHER LOOK LIKE AN IMPROVISED AMATEURWe pulled off doing a barcampwout being SHUT DOWN BY GOV, attracted 3000 people, imagine the HUNGER FOR INFORMATION
- The topics were broad but included DIGITAL SURVIVAL SKILLS needed today.
- But in myanmar and everywhere else, there are those who PROFIT AND MANIPULATE CONVERSATION for their own GAINSBad guys EXIST and we have to push for even more OPENESS togive them nowhere to hide
- [SLOW] so what can we do? What can the next generation experience that will inspire them to create a better world understanding they are part of EVERYONE?
- A lot of the problems with our governance, economies, and religions can be traced back to one FLAWED ASSUMPTION: we live in an open system.We TAKE PICTURES OF THE EARTH WITH KIDS so they get to see the lack of boundaries, religions, race divides and so on
- Across the world- I see one unifying theme. We all want better lives for our children, in a better environment.
- YOU ARE LOOKING AT A GIRL AND HER GRANDMA LOOK AT SPACE AND THEIR VILLAGE SIMULTANEOUSLY. Big change happens slowly, but it does happen.
- See this girl looking at her planet for the first time.Thanks everyone here for the wonderful work you are doing.
