CrowdDoing's Medicinal Foods & Herbs Program

CrowdDoing is a joint initiative of Reframe It Inc. and Match4Action Foundation that is focused on helping address the UN Sustainable Development Goals and beyond through micro-leadership, massively multi-disciplinary collaboration, and service learning to support social innovation and social enterprise to achieve systemic change. CrowdDoing's Medicinal Foods & Herbs program envisions empowered personal and communal health through food as medicine, unlocking nature’s potential with ancestral wisdom and contemporary science. We are a social impact platform to activate global ecosystems of healthy communities through public health research, literacy tools, and citizen science. With our rigorous scientific research and expert knowledge of foods that help ease stress and anxiety, we provide herbs and foods recommendations along with educational materials for users to enhance their food-as-medicine literacy and agency. We work with community partners to increase their impact and bring about system change by adding credibility and health outcomes to their offerings. We do so by analyzing scientific research and clinical evidence, gathering new evidence through data science and citizen science and working with a panel of herbal science experts We are looking for students who can help us with Public Health Clinical trials review for the herbs effectiveness for stress and anxiety, educational guidance to help achieve our public health goals.

Zero Subsidy Affordable Housing - Strategy Design

PROJECT DESCRIPTION Homebuyers today purchase 100% of a home, and borrow money using a mortgage to afford to do so. This conventional purchase masks that two things are bought at the same time: 100% of the use of the home (use value) and 100% of the future sale price of a home (so-called appreciation value). We propose to partner with families so they may buy only the percentage of appreciation value that they can afford. Our goal is to create an organization that will secure stable access to homes, provide opportunity to families to take an equity share with the prospect of appreciation, while ameliorating a cause of homelessness in dense, coastal urban regions, specifically the SF Bay Area, New York City and Seattle. The key to establishing this organization is to develop a strategic plan for engaging Impact Investors, Lenders & Municipal governmental to provide the initial investments needed to get the program off the ground. the program. The strategy to be developed needs to address the needs & goals of existing and future fractional homeowner-occupiers. We need help with creating a strategic plan to guide and coordinate our on-going efforts KEY PROJECT ACTIVITIES: Meet with key members of the ZSAH team and review our current thinking and progress to date Evaluate viability of the concept and identify areas that need further research and analysis Develop a strategy for how to move the project forward to gain initial funding Coordinate efforts of other ZSAH related teams to support the strategy NICE TO HAVE: Quantitative analysis to support the proposed strategy IDEAL ROLES/RESPONSIBILITIES: Project Management Business Strategist Communication/Marketing Financial Analyst FINAL PROJECT DELIVERABLES: Executive Summary / White Paper describing ZSAH objectives & strategy Formal business strategy document aimed at key potential stakeholders Condensed business strategy presentation (PowerPoint...) for potential investors High level project sequencing plan with key milestones and dependencies IN WHAT LANGUAGE WILL THIS PROJECT BE PROVIDED: English (US) All projects will begin on a first come, first serve basis, which cohorts are you + your team ABLE to participate in? Please list all that apply. Please note that flexibility will be key in ensuring we are able to secure a student team for your project.

Nature Counter Engineering by CrowdDoing

CrowdDoing has found small groups of trained professionals who know about specific nature benefits. There are people who have been trained in “Attention Restoration Theory”, “forest bathing”, “eco-therapy”, “nature deficit disorder reduction”, and other related terms. This has not be turned into a universal type of knowledge for any society to adopt in a modern context of majorities of the population living in cities and suburbs. CrowdDoing’s goal with Nature Counter is to create universal usable knowledge about what the benefits of nature dose are, how to access the benefits of nature dose and how to validate nature dose benefits for yourself. CrowdDoing.world, https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/74278432/ Our nature counter application gets people an expectation of benefit proportionately. We have a partially finished android and iphone app in gitab aiming at an MVP, and plans for a V2 partially developed. The app is not on the market yet. People who live in cities and the communities that connect them can achieve goals through increasing their nature dose. Exercise may have an obvious connection to health but the fact that people sitting on a park bench are experiencing a scientifically established public health benefit is not universally understood. Scientists have been explaining this to other researchers but it hasn’t become universal knowledge any country in the world. 13. 1.

Languages required- React native, redux, nodejs, mongodb Gitlab, slack 21.2. 1.0 is not complete. 2.0 is the main version that needs lots of help for schools to use, companies to use, health insurers to use, game companies to use etc. 22.2. Individuals and organizations can get the level of mental health, physical health and performance benefits they seek. The aim is to quantify the dose of nature benefits required to achieve individual and collective goals. 22.3.

Financing Positive Risk with Passive Risk

Financing positive risk with passive risk:Prevention derivatives is driven by the thesis that there is an under-valuation of passive risk (or the cost of inaction) and an under-prioritization of positive risk. Correspondingly for wildfires as an example, there is an under-recognition of the potential shared value upside of preventative action through social innovation and social interventions (such as goats & sheep that prevent wildfires). CrowdDoing.world's aim is to guarantee positive risk through leveraging existing liabilities to allow for the implications of prescriptive analytics to be financed. The under-pricing of passive risk means that liabilities are treated as either costs of doing business or un-predictable risks even for entirely preventable risks. Risk management offices have been too biased towards avoiding taking the wrong risks rather than ensuring that institutions make their own luck by seizing the abundant positive risk opportunities in social innovation. Meanwhile, the bias against positive risk leaves social innovations not to get adopted even if there would be remarkable benefits to all stakeholders if they were adopted. Part of this project is building a simulation wildfire prevention, goats and sheep for wildfire prevention game, beavers for drought prevention.
