Village Science Information

VILLAGE SCIENCE works to discover effective, enduring approaches that can improve access to information, increase the economic power of communities, and build trust and mutual respect between people in the developed and developing worlds. We believe that a Participatory Design Process is essential. We create research initiatives to build data and to develop projects that local communities are willing to support and actively engage with. We then work on behalf of these communities to assemble a global network of partners and stakeholders who can help them build it. VILLAGE SCIENCE also provides logistical support and technical assistance to other organizations. We’ve developed frameworks and workflows that improve cross-disciplinary collaboration, logistical planning, and information technology support. We also produce workshops, skill-building seminars, and conferences designed to build skills and lasting engagement between communities.
