I am french and currently stuck in lockdown. I've had similar feelings with these projects being mainly directed to the US (not that it is a bad thing at all, more that I don't find it directly relevant).
As much as I would also love to help the whole world, I have a feeling that I will personally be more efficient working on small projects trying to solve relevant local issues.
I am not sure where to start, but if anyone is in the same situation and/or have some ideas, let's get in touch and try to do something.

- magduf 7y agoMaybe people from other places (particularly Europe) should join the projects and start sister sub-projects to do the same things but for Europe. For the 1M ventilator one, for instance, there's no reason everyone can't work together on the design phase, because that's universal and open-source. Once that's done, there can be separate teams by nation or region to do the parts that are more specific to those places, such as financing, manufacturing, and distribution. These teams could still all be part of the larger project so they could learn from each other, while still focusing on their own immediate areas of responsibility.
