Mei Lin Fung

Once more, a small and focussed turn out, Mei Lin had returned form her travels and talked widely on the various initiatives that she is working on - some directly related and some tangential

Notes

  • Focus has been on People Centered Internet and its projects (was traveling for half the months of Nov, Dec and Jan)
  • AQUA - Dan Desmond - a number of public health projects (de-identified data) are seeking funding. The one most connected to LIG is the one seeking funding jointly with the Red Cross for addressing first 72 hours after a disaster (connecting people to prescriptions and services like dialysis which need identity)
  • She is personally focused on Puerto Rico - where PCI is encouraging and supporting 4 community based pilots (led by Marti Grimminck ) starting at end of this month - to assess the situation and support community-led recovery 
  • Several Puerto Rico fund raising initiatives underway for PCI - not directly related to identity - Fed: DOD, VA HHS and FEMA; NGO: Women's Campaign International, Stanford Graduate Business School
  • FEMA has reached out to Rand Corporation for connectivity recovery - PCI has been contacted 
  • MIT has a joint university in Singapore -SUTD. While in Singapore, Mei Lin met the Director of the MIT urban risk lab , an architect, Miho Mazereeuw - which has been funded by FEMA to look at disaster recovery - so buildings won't be rebuilt only to go down again in next year's hurricane season
  • MIT energy lab has also sent team to Puerto Rico - Solar Power and Water Purification
  • Fund raising for Puerto Rico - Vint Cerf in Palo Alto March 6th and another event organized by the Stanford Graduate Business School on March 10th

Conclusion

Lost identity needs to get involved with other groups in this space to provide a foundation to thinking abstract and broader ideas. 

The group can successfully work with the other groups as a layer of longer term thought - since the groups that are typically involved tend to be tactical or operational  - though occasionally both. It is recognized that longer term thought and strategy is often missing for no fault other than the groups are simply trying to get the job done.

Identity is strategic
