How are you investing in community and self-resilience right now? This Multisolving Moment will provide an open space for attendees to discuss answers to that question and learn from the Institute and from one another what has worked for us during uncertain times. Out of respect for attendees’ privacy, this session will not be recorded.

"In Guyang-ri, a farming village of 70 households about 90 minutes south-east of Seoul, people gather for communal free lunches six days a week. The meals are funded by the village’s one-megawatt solar installation, which generates roughly 10m won ($6,800) in net profit each month. “Residents eat lunch together every day, so we see each other’s faces, talk together,” says Jeon Joo-young, the village chief. “Bonds and solidarity between residents become much stronger. Life becomes more enjoyable.” The shift has been dramatic. Before the solar project launched in 2022, the village of about 130 people had no restaurant, no easy way to move around, and little communal infrastructure. Now solar revenue pays for meals, a village “happiness bus” for elderly people, a table-tennis facility and cultural activities. The village deliberately chose to spend solar income on welfare rather than individual dividends, a decision Jeon says residents made themselves rather than being persuaded." https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/apr/16/south-korea-solar-power-renewables-revolution #SouthKorea #SolarEnergy #Renewables #Solar #SolarPower
