With its pristine beaches, Stone Town’s historic charm, and the vibrancy of the Masai people, Zanzibar is an island as alluring as it is elusive. It is here, after all, in this remote reach of the world so beautifully enveloped in nature that some of the greatest technological and digital advances aren’t just explored, they’re actualized. As compelling as it is promising, Zanzibar has found itself squarely on the threshold of open-source internet, the impact and implications of the teetering toddler that is AI, and digital sovereignty — data ownership and personal commodification on one’s own terms — emerging technologies that offer a glimpse of a fast-approaching future.

In the second collaborative episode between HATCH, ThreeFold and Hub Culture’s The Chronicle Discussions, I Am Interchange founder Tate Chamberlin and groundbreaking digital innovators Hub Culture founding director Stan Stalnaker, machine learning engineer and Neurotech founder Kalebu Gwalugano, and ThreeFold founder and CEO Kristof De Spiegeleer explore the future of digital communities, Web 3, Machine Intelligence (MI), and all that humanity holds in the balance.

African Regenerative Futures: Part 1

As young Tanzanians, in particular, struggle to define their way in the world, questions arise about the true nature of opportunity, and what to do when there is a lack. Does the mere existence of options suffice? Amidst political and social landscapes intent on the misleading adage to “pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” it seems the individual is to blame for failing to carpe their diem. But the process of how we become what we become — the choices and experiences that lead us from point a to z, beginning to end — is far more complicated than adages can convey. Opportunity resides in place as much as presence.

Here, at the African Regenerative Futures Summit in Zanzibar, Tanzania,  Tate Chamberlin hosts Veronica Likunama, Dr. Stephanie Ndung’u, and Victor Muhagachi  as they examine the nature of opportunity in a tiny country on the cusp of technological, social, and political evolution.

Whether we consider the environment, politics, infrastructure, health, economics, or equities across a broad swath of social constructs, the consensus is clear and urgent: all is not as it should be. The United Nations (UN), a consortium of 193 Member States from around the globe, agrees. In 2015, the UN unanimously adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) calling for urgent action in global partnership to secure “peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future.” In alignment with the goals, HATCH — a curated network of innovators, artists, activists, and entrepreneurs working together to accelerate positive global change — focused its fall summit impact labs on topics related to their four impact pillars: EQUITY, EDUCATION, ENVIRONMENT, and EMPOWERMENT This series will explore those on the frontlines of transformational systems change, accelerating solutions for these human challenges.
