Agile Project Manager for Nature Counter by CrowdDoing.world

We are seeking this project manager volunteer to support our Nature Counter team in spreading adoption fo biophelia as a public health benefit. We are building an app and need project managers to help us with this impact goal.


You can see benefits of time in the park put on Nature Counter's linkedin page here- https://www.linkedin.com/posts/nature-counter-by-crowddoing_forestbathing-naturedose-attentionrestorationtheory-activity-6805531019593302016-1hnd, You can see more background on our Nature Counter team here- https://www.linkedin.com/posts/nature-counter-by-crowddoing_forestbathing-naturedose-attentionrestorationtheory-activity-6805531019593302016-1hnd. You can see a post about how just 30 minutes a week in nature reduces the chance of depression by 7%.


120 minutes a week in nature is a basic minimal nature dose every person in a city should
achieve as a matter of public health. 90 minutes a day five days a week every week is an
optimal recommended dose of nature for every person in a city. CrowdDoing studied biophelia
in cities and found that there are more than one hundred diseases that can be prevented
through access to nature. Nature Counter is a CrowdDoing concept, imminently to become a
functional prototype that lets each person see if they are getting that level of time in nature per
week or per month. Time in nature is approximated through the kind of nature that exists in
cities- geo-locations of people based on their cell phones when they are in parks. Nature
Counter tracks each person’s time in park when the application is on. This allows people to
track it the way step counters track it. The aim is to have a universal public health goal of
getting the city’s people to have enough time in parks to realize the biophelia collective health
dividend. The concept is that nature is both an individual activity and a collective goal that
friends should encourage each-other to achieve. Nature Counter is aimed at getting each
person to track their time in nature and adjust their calendar over time to increase their time in
nature. Our estimations are that people’s time in nature would rise if they could track this and
have target goals for their health due to time in nature accordingly.

Biophelia counter builds off of the evidence that people who use step counters walk 27%
more than people who don’t. http://www.nbcnews.com/id/21901412/ns/health-fitness/t/people-
walk-mile-more-if-wearing-pedometer/ Assuming Nature Counter can achieve similar results
for biophelia, whatever percentage of the city who downloaded the nature counter application.
Assuming that San Francisco residents visit parks at an average level, they would visit parks
29 times a year- https://www.nrpa.org/blog/29-number-of-times-americans-visit-their-local-
parks-annually/. Assuming the minimal dose goal, each person would need to increase that by
another 40% to get to an average of a weekly visit to a local park and experience of biophelia.
Each person would need to expand that dose by 1000% to reach the optimal dose. This is
where a biophelia counter can come it and help people reach for more biophelia time in their
lives.

The only way CrowdDoing.world can realize its impact potential is through virtual volunteers,service learners(http://blog.reframeit.com/service-learning-and-skilled-volunteering/), and micro-leaders (https://real-leaders.com/leveraging-micro-leadership-to-make-aspirational-goals-achievable/) coming together.

 

See this brief video aboutMicro-leadership at CrowdDoing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhdB2YJ8Ocs&app=desktop). Micro-leadership means that each person adopts a dimension of responsibility for a collective problem in our society through collaborating on that area creatively individually and together through social innovation.

At CYT Dallas, we believe in the power of building character through the medium of Creative Arts. In our culture, character is something that is often hoped for but seldom realized. We have the opportunity to impart discipline and integrity while instilling self-confidence in each student that accepts our challenge. While students are busy creating characters on stage, we are focused on helping them build character that will shape not only their future but our's as well.

We believe that God created us all equal and we are indeed beautifully and wonderfully made in His image, each of us with talents and skillsets that are uniquely ours. Our desire is that through the creative arts, we help our students to realize those talents and skillsets individually while learning the value of respect, work ethics, working together, and the importance of time and effort well spent.

We have chosen to reach out to students who loved exploring their creative side. While doing so, we hope to plant seeds in their lives that will change the world around them and possibly the world in which we all live. Creative Arts have infused the world for Millennia; painting, singing, acting, dancing, writing, artisanal crafts -- All of these disciplines have impacted the history of our world.

We want to build, guide, and shape character while creating characters for everyone's enjoyment. Who better to utilize these God-Given gifts than those who have been impacted and taught the Godly ways to use their gifts?

If you have a creative student in your life who would benefit from a program like this, as well as, have an opportunity to include others, CYT has a program just for that person.

We need your help to make these dreams come true! Our annual gala allows us to raise the funds needed to make those dreams happen!

“Antyodoy Anath Ashram” is an orphanage established in 1995 at the village of Paunsi, East Medinipur, West Bengal

It is a fascinating story of a great journey, initiated by one single person, Sri Balaram Karan, an inhabitant of the village, who impulsively brought home an unfortunate orphan in a chilly evening, whom he found desperately searching for food from a garbage bin, at an adjacent locality.

The journey, which had started by saving one child, has culminated to today’s Antyodoy Anath Ashram, giving shelter to about 102 hapless children. Sri Karan did not spare any efforts during the last two decades to provide them a place, they can call home.
