A while back I and others here and at social.coop discussed the possibility of a "study-into-action" group exploring open tech enabled solidarity food systems. I'm hoping we can pursue that in part through Prosocial Commons. They're using hylo.com as one shared platform, something #OpenTEAM are also developing (https://community-platform-collabathon.webflow.io/)

I've spoken with hylo and OT folks and they're interested in collaborating with us (including Open Food Network) once OT launches their hylo platform in April...
