We shake the status quo by creating networks of communities that learn across boundaries and differences to bridge people and ideas towards a more vibrant shared world. We are creating an equitable, beautiful and thriving future together - one Big Question at a time Our passion is to connect education, technology and rural Colombia, which is amazingly diverse.. We do it through SOLE (Self-Organised Learning Environments). SOLE is a disruptive education methodology that empowers communities to develop autonomy, collaboration, deep learning, and most important of all, to solve real-life problems! A SOLE session is simple, all you need is a room with people, a few computers with internet access and Big Questions. In a SOLE people self-organize to find answers to questions without a teacher. In this intellectual adventure, learning emerges from the participants' interest. Our goals are: 1. Scale SOLE to the most the communities who need it the most, be it in the formal public education or in vulnerable communities throughout Colombia.. 2. Build and nurture a SOLE Colombia community where everyone, regardless of differences, is welcome and never again alone. 3. Design and implement replicable experiments to bring SOLE to the largest number of people making use of new technologies in a socially and environmentally sustainable manner. 4. In the following 5 years our goal is to empower 2 million people in rural communities affected by the armed conflict through SOLE.
