Project Status: MVP / Alpha Testing. We are building a lightweight, text-first repository of vital instructions that can be downloaded and shared offline. This page is currently gathering initial traffic statistics to validate global demand.
Module 1: WASH (Water, Sanitation & Hygiene)
1. Solar Water Disinfection (SODIS)
An institutional, WHO-approved method to kill bacteria, viruses, and parasites using just sunlight and plastic bottles.
- Find clean, transparent PET plastic bottles (under 2 liters).
- Fill the bottle with contaminated water and shake for 20 seconds to oxygenate.
- Place the bottle horizontally on a dark surface (like a tin roof) under direct sunlight.
- Time required: Leave for 6 hours (or 2 full days if the sky is cloudy). The UV-A radiation and heat will make the water safe to drink.
2. Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS)
A simple formula to prevent fatal dehydration caused by severe diarrhea and waterborne diseases.
- Clean Water: 1 Liter (boiled or treated via SODIS).
- Sugar: 6 level teaspoons (pure white sugar acts as a carrier for hydration).
- Salt: 0.5 level teaspoon (replenishes vital electrolytes).
- Preparation: Mix until completely dissolved. Give to the patient in small, frequent sips. Do not store the mixture for more than 24 hours.
Module 2: Off-Grid Energy & Power
1. DIY Emergency Power Bank
How to harvest cells from discarded electronics to keep communication devices alive when the grid fails.
- Salvage old 18650 lithium-ion cells (commonly found in dead laptop batteries or discarded e-cigarettes).
- Check for structural damage. Cells must not be dented or leaking.
- Connect them parallelly using a cheap, widely available 5V USB step-down/boost module (TP4056 or similar).
- Use this block to safely recharge smartphones or low-power LED emergency lights.
2. The "Tippy Tap" Handwashing Station
A hands-free washing station made from trash, critical for preventing the spread of pathogens without running water.
- Take a empty 5-liter plastic jerrycan or bottle.
- Make a small hole near the cap and insert a hollow pen casing or tube as a spout.
- Hang the container from a wooden tripod by its handle.
- Tie a string from the neck of the bottle down to a stick on the ground (the foot pedal).
- Stepping on the pedal tilts the container, releasing water without touching it with dirty hands.
Future Roadmap
- Module 3: Digital Resilience (Mesh networking, offline maps, and censorship circumvention).
- Module 4: Digital Micro-Work (Connecting remote, vulnerable populations to global digital tasks for direct currency income).
- Offline Distribution: Single-click PDF compilations and .ZIM database files for completely offline browsing.
