Open Source Communities – One Community Weekly Progress Update #287

Open source communities can positively impact life for people all over the world by demonstrating and sharing how to DIY-replicate sustainable approaches to food, energy, housing, education, Highest Good economic design, social architecture, fulfilled living, global stewardship practices, and more. One Community is supporting this as a path to global sustainability by developing what is needed to form and lead a global network of self-replicating teacher/demonstration hubs that will cooperatively create even more of these open source plans and resources.
