- A Broadgate Initiative 14 W H Y G A D G E T s F A I L ( B e f o r e R e a c h i n g Yo u ) Inconvenient Designs Man today is a busy robot, who is "mobile". He transfers from one place to another, with his pocket full of loads. He needs to multi-task white sitting on his chair. He needs a handy gadget that can help him get all his tasks done in a few moments. He needs a gadget with long battery life and a screen that can show his week-long schedule. Surprisingly, he can forget about the expensive pricing when he really needs the convenience that the gadget is offering. Unfortunately, some gadgets forget these realities. Companies still create gadgets that do not match what the modern man needs. No Upgrading Every year, software and hardware stores launch new versions of their products and services. New version means new features and new uses. However, some gadgets seem to stay fixed with their old designs. These gadgets deny changes and do not put more adds-on, so their users get bored in pressing the same keys and running the same application all the time. Note: gadgets follow Darwin's idea of evolution. Gadgets need to integrate additional functions and additional features from time to time to be able to work with other gadgets. Unsolved Problems Some companies facing technical difficulties and other specific problems with their new products and services always state in their press release "we will fix that problem soon". But the word "soon" is vague and tells no deadline. Other companies also underestimate a certain problem, assuming users will no longer complain in time. These companies assume that "minor problems" need no attention. The worst are companies that conduct "trial and error" sessions with their first set of customers, without informing the customers that they are part of their "extended laboratory". When users get tired of waiting for the problems to get solved, they turn to other service providers. When they encounter connection problems from time to time, they also consider "disconnecting" from the company. In 2010, we witnessed how Microsoft Kin disappeared in the market. For manufacturers of these gadgets, 2011 is another year to attempt working on with improved gadgets that will not flop.
- A Broadgate Initiative 16 Can you give us some background about this project, how did it start? We Kare is a project founded in October 2013 in Bangkok, by Rebecca Rehn and Anna Wennberg. We believe that education is an important part for lifting people out of poverty, to create an understanding of other cultures and their future sustainability. The goal of We Kare is to spread information about sustainable development with a focus on children and teenagers. Recently we received a scholarship from the Ecological Youth Foundation in Sweden Background Rebecca Rehn and Anna Wennberg have a common background in the area of sustainability. Our interest started during an intercultural volunteer exchange with focus on Sustainable Entrepreneurship in Thailand and Sweden in 2008 and in 2009. Back in Thailand in 2013 for exchange studies at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok the idea was born to continue working on the three pillars: Sustainability, Cultural Exchange and Education. How would you define sustainability? We define sustainability as the three pillars consisting of Environmental, Social and Economical sustainability. The environmental sustainability in our project will in the first stage focus on water purification, health, recycling and sustainable agriculture. Our research in the village shows that the people are suffering from severe health problems caused by the drinking water. It is common to boil the water before drinking it. This technique can cause health problems. Inhaling the smoke from the firewood is dangerous and in addition the water does not get clean enough. To approach this problem we have been raising money for distributing a technology that cleans water with the use of sunlight. The social sustainability refers to the access to education, and the importance of meeting the basic human needs. Our “Sustainability Days” in the village are also a way of working on social sustainability. During this intensive day we are spreading happiness for the children and promoting sustainability in a simple and creative way. The economical sustainability is important for the village in the long term. We want the village to be able to be self-sufficient and therefore we plan to conduct training sessions in entrepreneurship and creativity for developing products, preferably products with things they have nearby. Our hope is that the village will get an income from this in the future. Can you give us some examples of what tools you provide to people to make their life easier? Our first focus has been to deal with the issues of water cleaning and electricity, and that's why we donated two Solvatten. Solvatten makes unsafe water drinkable by using solar energy. It takes about 2-6 hours in a sunny place for the water to become drinkable. This can be done once, twice, sometimes four times a day, producing 11- 44 liters. The other sustainable tool is a solar powered lamp, HiLight by HiNation. Our hope is that HiLight will be used during the evenings when it becomes dark, which will give the people longer working hours and it is also proven that if the animals have light during the night they will gain more weight because they can eat during the night. It is also possible to charge your phone with the help from HiLight which is important for keeping the villages safe. WE KARE!
- A Broadgate Initiative 17 Why the big focus on sustainability instead of basic needs such as food and shelter? For us - sustainability is everything. It is impossible to separate these issues and we think that they are connected in a system. The villages we are working with at the moment already have their basic needs covered. If we are starting to work with other villages we will make sure that they will also have these needs covered before approaching the sustainability training. Can you tell us how the climate change is affecting the Karen people and in what way is your project helping them in this aspect? Climate change poses threats and dangers to the survival of indigenous communities worldwide, even though indigenous peoples contribute little to greenhouse emissions. Karen people are facing several problems regarding climate change which includes forced relocation by the Thai government. Another issue is the agricultural problems such as the increased use of fertilizers had led to more water pollution problems. How do you see the future of the villages you take care of? We are striving for "the philosophy of Sufficiency Economy" which is King Bhumibol Adulyadej's method in promoting Sustainability in Thailand. As 'our' villages already are developed enough to meet the need of basic food and shelter we think that they are ready to take the sustainability approach to the next level. We will keep on working to inspire the villagers to be self sufficient and work on sustainable entrepreneurship. What would you like to accomplish within the next 5 years? Our mission is to create a better life for the kids all over the world. We think we can do this through our sustainability training tool, which will give the opportunity for other people to teach about sustainability for kids as well. A personal goal is to work for We Kare in different parts of the world - and it would have been interesting to see how the need for sustainability differs depending on where you are. How is the project funded? The project is funded by individuals who want to contribute creating a sustainable world. We received a generous donation for Solvatten from a company called Fatshore. We also got support in providing rice and clothes to the villages from Innuendo Cakes, Junior Achievement Thailand, Allrice, Jasberry Rice and Siam Organics. We got support from Innuendo Cakes, Junior Achivement Thailand, Allrice, Jasberry Rice and Siam Organics to provide rice and clothes for the villages. In what way can the readers of Broadsight contribute? If you're interested to contribute in any way - please feel free to contact us! Valentin Fisher
