Do you have advice for people who want to somehow be involved?

For example, I am from South Africa and one of the biggest problems here is the terrible quality of some government schools. However, I don't really know how to do anything about this, despite having an MSc in pure mathematics and being a somewhat capable programmer.

We do have some recycling programs that seem to be quite effective—the recyclers are quite prominent when you put out your trash and are strikingly serene people (for the most part).



There is a book called "Riches for the Poor: The Clemente Course in Humanities" that might interest you. Here is a related website:

You could get involved any number of ways in trying to offer educational options or improve the existing schools.

I run r/citizenplanners. You might want to check that out.


Thanks for the links, and thank you for your work.
