Jorge will be joining RIUP WG, and today he will be sharing with us how he and his colleagues have reached out and engaged rural communities, farmworkers and their ecosystems. I envision we will hear some proven and basic take-away themes regarding ground level engagement; first steps in building trust using core technology.

These include historical, language, religion, economic, family or other social structures that are more congenial or accepting of their own identity. Since the dominant social order typically has the political and economic power to structure society to their own best interests, those living apart are seldom able to exercise their own rights as they choose. Specifically excluded from this category are those people rich enough to travel where and when they desire. Separated communities are found in all nations large enough to give them the space to form. Some such communities include: - indigenous where a foreign people have taken their land in the Americas and elsewhere, - homeless or street people who do have have a safe place to call home, - Roma of Europe and Travelers of Ireland, among others that chose to roam, - Uyghurs of China, Rohingya of Burma, Catalans of Spain and other stateless nations <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stateless_nation>, - any rural population in an industrialized country that chose a quiet, familiar location. Each Subject Needs - Privacy, meaning the right to be let alone, as they often do not want to be assimilated - Access to the same rights and privileges as the bulk of the nation’s people where they live
