A call for help from Cyprus: finding community solutions to the crisis

Yes, but what about Cyprus itself?

So, Joel, welcome!

As Noemi says, several of us are interested in problems similar to those you list here. And in less than a month, Petros is going on an Expedition to document the many ways smart communities in Greece are bouncing back – and some of us are supporting him! So I guess it does make sense for you to join Edgeryders.

After checking out your website (which is opencyprus.org, not .com as you wrote above!) I am missing one thing: a clear brief about Cyprus. The categories of solution you list are relevant everywhere in Europe (and probably outside): Cyprus remains out of focus to someone like me, who has never been there. I would find your call more compelling if it came with some specifics: what makes Cyprus different from, say, Portugal; who – in the island – is working on it; how local movements relate to the political/financial calendar etc.
