GOSEP is a global reaching community empowerment project to holistically design, research, develop, promote and entrepreneur integrated community habitat, systems, and infrastructure design solutions.
Our secondary purpose is to act through our website at www.gosep.org as a centre of gravity to attract a diverse community of people and institutions passionate about using their unique skills and resources to make a difference, by addressing in a coordinated and collaborative way some of the world's most pressing structural problems.
We collectively implement democratic decision support protocols to determine the most pressing and intractable global problems and the best way to systematically design, research, develop, and implement holistic solutions.
We harness our member’s effort using collaborative communication tools to create an open-access resource hub to curate and transparently disseminate in an easily accessible form, the collective wisdom we jointly collate from our research and development work.
Our focus is on tangible outcomes that are measurable and timely responses to our evidence-based evaluation of what the most pressing global needs are.
Producing urgently needed enabling technologies to lift disadvantaged populations out of disease, inadequate nutrition and poverty have been identified by the founding members as the critical priority for our first projects. These include developing low-cost yet high-quality water purification and sanitation solutions that are integrated with local food production systems. A critical design criteria will be ensuring these enabling solutions are affordable to almost anyone on the planet.
Our project focus will evolve over time based on regular engagement with communities of need and re-evaluation of their needs and using democratic prioritisation methods.
