ACT8 - Preserving Culture
I chose the indigenous people of the Fiji Islands (also known as Melanesian people). I chose Fiji in particular because I have personal ties to the country as while I was born in the US, my family parents and family are from Fiji.
The culture is rich with tradition and in particular I chose to put a tabua in the time capsule that my group has created. A tabua is a polished tooth of a whale and is an important cultural item in Fiji. They were given as gifts and were used in… Continue

Shadowing - ACT1
I chose to shadow Sushmita Ghosh of Ashoka - Innovators for the Public. The reason I chose her is because I like the fact that she's a former news journalist. I also like the fact that she founded a separate entity outside of Ashoka which is the Changemakers to innovate and collaborate. You can actually follow what Sushmita is doing on the Changemakers website under her profile. There are also many seminars and videos of her speaking online as well.

Listen to the right people and You can change the world
The secret that most spoke to me from "Innovation in Africa" was the "Listen to the right people" tip. It's impossible for us as human beings to go through everything that every person on the planet experiences. Each person goes through experiences that are unique to them and their specific lives. Like the article says, "...so you probably don't know what it's like to carry fifty pounds of firewood on your head," and it's true. However, we can change that by speaking to people that have gone… Continue

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
