Seeking Ways to Help the World

Participants are being sought for the second International Development Design Summit, which will be held next summer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The first such workshop, which I wrote about last year, saw 40 students, engineers, farmers, professors and others from 18 countries hunker down in groups to devise simple, affordable ways to clean water, chill produce, generate electricity, and solve other problems facing the world


The California Institute of Technology and Olin College are also involved. The summit also involves a crew of volunteers expert in everything from chemistry to welding to help turn ideas into prototypes.

There may be a role for you, or someone you know
