There’s something undeniably powerful about being able to experience the same moment in the same place. Whether it’s a handshake, a hug, a karaoke song, or simply sitting next to someone, these physical gestures reinforce bonds in ways that can be difficult to replicate online. We are grateful for the opportunity to come together physically during our 2024 in-person retreat to nurture relationships that make the work we do more meaningful and effective.

The increasing frequency and intensity of forest fires in Bolivia has placed significant stress on natural ecosystems, biodiversity, and local communities. As climate change exacerbates these risks, calls for innovative solutions to address the challenge have gotten louder and more urgent. Bolivia Flying Labs had already been supporting fire-affected communities with essential supplies like water, food, and medicine. However, there was a recognition that technology could be used to address the core issue more effectively. When the opportunity to undertake a project arose, Bolivia Flying Labs answered the call, launching the Firehawk Project. Supported by WeRobotics’ Turning Data into Action (TDIA) microgrant, they set out to utilize drones and drone data to map and monitor forest areas, providing vital information to identify high-risk zones susceptible to fires.

That's all we can say for now...

So what is the Power of Local? The Power of local is the belief that the members of a community understand their own challenges and are the most equipped to solve them.   The Power of Local says that when technology is placed in the hands of experts who live and work in these communities, its effectiveness in addressing their issues grows exponentially. The Power of Local believes the solution to humanitarian, health, development, climate, and environmental problems lies not in the technology itself, but in the people who know how to use it for social good. The Power of Local is not about drones, AI, robotics, or any other emerging technology that we can use to solve problems. The Power of Local is about the people, about putting the tools in their hands and knowing that they can and will create the change they need in their own communities. The Power of Local is the responsibility to build a better world that belongs to all of us. Embrace the Power of Local and join, partner and collaborate with the Flying Labs https://lnkd.in/dFyn3wp4
