Engineering Teams
Food and Relief Team

Power Team
Objective: To create electricity in restricted environments, and an effective and safe way to store it.
Water Purification Team
Objective: To purify water from contaminants, and to also desalinate water
Sewage Management Team
Objective: Reduce the risk of public health disasters with a decentralized, low-cost system for managing large volumes of human waste.
Heat Storage Team

Decentralized Data Management
Objective: Creating a cheap, modular, and easily scalable way to organize large volumes of data, especially health data. In many parts of the world, patient information often doesn’t move between clinics, hospitals, or even departments. This breakdown leads to unclear or incorrect treatment plans, missed or delayed diagnoses, and unfortunate preventable harm - such as giving medications to patients with known allergies resulting in death.
Humanitarian Drone Team
Objective: Focusing on transporting essential goods, like medication and supplies (saline bags, blood products etc) quickly with very limited personnel.
