The following is a modular system. Each module is designed to be useful and improve outcomes independently, however implemented together they are more than the sum of their parts.

While typically associated with physical technology, modularity has profound implications when applied to the design (and redesign) of socioeconomic systems and the propagation of ideas. MORE ›
