Due to the pandemic, many children in Honduras are currently not attending school nor receiving classes from a teacher. Schooling is being carried out through the delivery and completion of homework worksheets with little to no guidance, the little guidance being given through a prerecorded class on television. For the past two years, we have been offering free tutoring at schools in-person in Honduras. Now, we have found a way to continue our lessons via live Zoom classes.

We are looking for a volunteer to tutor for one of the classes we have in Honduras
This would be for our 4th grade math tutoring program. These sessions would be one hour per week. We have virtual material we teach you how to use in class!

- No materials from you are required.
- We will offer a virtual seminar for training
- There is an easy to use curriculum for tutors to follow

The schedule will be finalized with tutor feedback. It is once a week, usually one hour between 3pm and 5pm CST.

Spanish professional working proficiency or higher is required since our students only speak Spanish.

We offer volunteer hours, as we are a 501 c 3, and recommendation letters are available upon request.

Each year, suicide claims more lives than war, murder, and natural disasters combined. Yet suicide prevention doesn't receive anywhere near the funding as other leading causes of death. It's up to Walkers like us to make a difference. Together we can change the conversation about mental health and put a stop to this tragic loss of life.
The core of the Out of the Darkness Walks, the Community Walks created a movement. Held in hundreds of cities across the country, they give people the courage to open up about their own struggle or loss, and the platform to change our culture’s approach to mental health. We invite you to join us as a volunteer for our Mohawk Valley Out of the Darkness Walk on October 3, 2021!

Passive Risk/Cost of Inaction Analyst Volunteer, Wildfire Prevention Derivatives
Prevention Derivatives draws upon passive risk/ cost of inaction. Literature reviews on cost of inaction in general and with regards to wildfire specifically can be helpful.
-Prevention derivatives is driven by the thesis that there is an under-valuation of passive risk (or the cost of inaction) and an under-prioritization of positive risk. Correspondingly for wildfires as an example, there is an under-recognition of the potential shared value upside of preventative action through social innovation and social interventions (such as goats & sheep that prevent wildfires). CrowdDoing.world's aim is to guarantee positive risk through leveraging existing liabilities to allow for the implications of prescriptive analytics to be financed. The under-pricing of passive risk means that liabilities are treated as either costs of doing business or un-predictable risks even for entirely preventable risks. Risk management offices have been too biased towards avoiding taking the wrong risks rather than ensuring that institutions make their own luck by seizing the abundant positive risk opportunities in social innovation. Meanwhile, the bias against positive risk leaves social innovations not to get adopted even if there would be remarkable benefits to all stakeholders if they were adopted

In the framework of Prevention Derivatives, we want to create a predictive machine learning (ML) model that for a given geographical region will estimate likely savings (losses) due-to protection (damages) of stakeholders’ properties, business profits, common health, and regional ecology resulting in applying risk prevention solutions (or doing nothing instead). Goal of these notes is to analyze ML model’s design, offer a potential improvement and to discuss existing approaches for data collection, and training and testing the model. It is important to notice that the model is applied to the entire selected or target region. Therefore, a geographical region R is the smallest unit we apply modeling to.
Data science will be utilized in the following ways:
Explore/Visualize data currently available on Wildfires
Identify trends and patterns in Historical data
Quantify historical losses in dollars based on property destruction, casualties, acres burnt, etc.
Build predictive models to identify areas of high wildfire risk based on factors such as weather, vegetation, topography, etc.
Visualization of Model outcomes
Scenario building (changing input variables and observing impact on outcome)
Tools - R, Python, MATLAB, SQL, PowerPoint
Knowledge or Interest in anyone or more:
Identify papers on Simulation of Wildfires, Catastrophe Modeling
Review and present Technical papers in a way that everyone can understand
Assist in Model development and testing by contributing in finding data and programming
Identify/Collect data relevant to wildfire Impact
Work cross-functionally
Traits:
Mathematically inclined, highly analytical, creative problem solver, can conduct analyses independently or with minimal supervision
Programming for Data Science
Mathematics
Statistics
Predictive Analytics
Prescriptive Analytics
Machine Learning - Supervised/Unsupervised learning
