Epoch 10 Livestream: Climate & Clean Water - Building Real Solutions in Crisis Areas

Описание: How do you get clean water to 2 million people in a war zone without electricity? And how do you make sure funding for climate projects actually reaches the people doing the work?

This livestream features two climate-focused projects from Octant's Epoch 10 cohort. Salah from Blue Filter shares how his portable filtration technology is providing safe drinking water in Gaza, no power or chemicals required. Ru from Atlantis talks about the massive trust gap in impact funding (billions misallocated, pennies reaching ground-level workers) and how blockchain can fix it.

The conversation gets into what it actually takes to build for crisis areas, why so many engineers waste their skills on trading apps, and the case for "less bits, more atoms."
Speakers:

Salah Saudi - Blue Filter (@BluefilterC)
Ru - Atlantis (@Atlantis_p2p)
