 ===Context===
-Ubatuba is a municipality sitting exactly where the eastern coast of Brazil is crossed by the Tropic of Capricorn. The city has a high record of nature conservation - 86% of its territory is composed of atlantic forest, one of the biggest biodiversities in the world. Despite attracting a number of people sensible to that context, though, the political imaginary of the city often regards preservation as an obstacle to development.

The city has a high record of nature conservation - 86% of its territory is composed of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Forest|atlantic forest]], which hosts one of the biggest biodiversities in the world. Despite attracting a number of people sensible to that context, though, the city is usually administered by people who regard preservation as an obstacle to "development". For those people, development depends on industrialization.
 Prisma has the long-term goal of stressing the relevance of socio-environmental innovation by building local capacity, retaining and attracting talents and creating critical mass for sustainable alternatives to local development.

+The first iteration of Prisma, called [[CISA]] will be developed between July and December 2017 as a hybrid course composed of three basic modules:
-  * How to learn what we need;
-  * Basic project language;
-  * Modes of organisation and work.
-The first phase will be shaping the syllabus and either producing or selecting relevant contents for these three modules, in brazilian portuguese. All the content produced, as well as selections of playlists of available third-party materials, will be published under a CC-BY-SA license.
-The course will be offered for free to a small test group, possibly six students coming from a partner project on social engagement in local communities. Other possilities for test groups are students or former students from the two technical high schools in Ubatuba, or else selected members of the collaborative incubator inc.ubalab.
+  * How to learn what(ever) we need;
+  * Basic projectish (how to speak the language of projects);
+  * Ways of organising and working.
-The courses will simultaneously offer access to online content and discussions, and hold periodic face-to-face meetings with the test group, from august to november. Meanwhile, students will develop their own project(s) of socio-environmental innovation. They will create and document complementary learning paths relevant to their projects, and publish these paths also under a CC-BY-SA license. Depending on other funding sources of Prisma, they will also be hired to transform these learning paths into new course modules. Some examples of possible new modules: permaculture, design thinking, circular economy, fundraising, web and digital media, event production, project management, free/open hardware, prototyping, graphic design (among many others).

+The central outcome expected of CISA (and Prisma as a whole) is to ensure that people with good ideas for socio-economic development are given the instruments and methodologies to put those ideas into practice in an open and sustainable way.
 The syllabus for the basic modules will be published under open licenses. The idea is then to ask the feedback of advisors and partners of the project; as well as the opinion of activists and researchers working with digital culture, sustainability and circular economy, appropriate technologies and other relevant areas. The commented syllabus will be published online as well, becoming very important material for similar projects in the future.
-The perspective and opinion of students about course contents will be treated as another source of insight, as well as the concrete impacts and eventual obstacles of their own projects during Prisma.

-Lastly, the acceptance and dissemination of online materials created for Prisma will offer important indicators. This is a pioneer project, at least in portuguese language. We expect to attract a good amount of visibility with it.

 ===Who will benefit===
-The first iteration of Prisma will benefit directly the small test group of about 6 or so students. It will also have indirect impact as the students choose their own projects to be developed during these six months. As the focus is on socio-environmental projects, there shall be positive impact from the projects themselves.

 ===Location===
-Ubatuba has an abundant nature (with the highest proportion of preserved territory in the State of São Paulo), a diverse population and centuries of history. Its mentions in scientific publications are remarkable when compared to the wider region around it.

-On the other hand, there are pressing challenges. Unlike similar localities, Ubatuba can not become industrialized in the traditional way, due exactly to the predominance of its preserved areas. In the imaginary of most of its political and higher economic classes, preservation equals underdevelopment.
+On the other hand, there are pressing challenges. Unlike similar localities, Ubatuba can not become industrialized in the traditional way, due exactly to the predominance of its preserved areas. In the imaginary of most of its political and higher economic classes, though, preservation equals underdevelopment. The city must find alternative paths. Otherwise, the regulations will be changed. There is no University in Ubatuba, what adds a constant drainage of young people along with their skills, talent, creativity and desire for action. Those who stay fall prey to an economy dependent on heavily seasonal mass tourism and construction work.
-Building alternative paths for sustainable inclusive development is urgent, but the absence of a proper university makes it even harder.
 ===Risks / challenges===
-The biggest challenge we might face would be if talented young people, inventors and innovators from Ubatuba don't get interested in what we have to offer. Becoming part of an international network of like-minded project is already a way to overcome the prejudice people often have against local initiatives. CISA envisions a number of local partners that will not only help making the project known by potential participants, but also point to particularly talented individuals, creative projects or specific demands that could benefit from its implementation.

 ===Background===
-Prisma (and CISA within it) is one of the outcomes of [[cienciaaberta:cienciaaberta|Ciência Aberta Ubatuba]], a two-year research project on open science in Ubatuba, member of the OCSD network, coordinated by IBICT and funded by IDRC. [[:felipefonseca|Felipe Fonseca]] was responsible for the local activities of Ciência Aberta Ubatuba: mapping the institutions, researchers, activists and other actors involved with the production and circulation of knowledge, organising events putting them together with other social contexts from Ubatuba, Brazil and abroad. This experience made me sure of some assumptions I already have. In particular, the size of the gap created by the lack of any Universities here. The long-term plan to Prisma is to fill that gap by retaining and attracting talents as well as investments into socio-environmental innovation. Ciência Aberta Ubatuba was presented in the 4S/EASST conference in Barcelona 2016, as well as ESOCITE Curitiba 2016. Our experience will be shared as a chapter in an upcoming book on open science organised by OCSDNet.

-I had also a number of other experiences in between arts, science, technology and society during the last 15 years: creating and producing four editions of the Tropixel international festival since 2013; teaching at a public technical school in Ubatuba; working for two years with identity and PR for two communities of traditional cultures in Ubatuba (a tribe of native brazilians and a quilombo, remaining settlement of former slaves); researching labs of experimental digital culture for the brazilian Ministry of Culture, the Spanish Agency of Cooperation AECID, and after that my MA at Unicamp University of Campinas; developing and implementing a digital culture based exclusively in free/open software and contents for the huge network of Pontos de Cultura in Brazil; creating and coordinating the MetaReciclagem and Bricolabs networks.

 ===How open is it?===
-Prisma is conceived as a project of open education. It will make use of available open educational resources when possible, and always use open licensing (CC-BY-SA) for its own content - from playlists and lists of selected materials to multimedia content produced for the modules.

 ===Sustainability over time===
-Prisma is being built with a sense of resilience. The recent years in Brazil have reminded us never to trust a single funding source, as budget cuts have hit culture and science even harder than other areas.

-The mid-term plan is to structure Prisma as a social business that generates revenue in many ways (seling certified courses, offering face-to-face immersions, in-house training and so on) and reinvests all the profit into itself. To reach that point, it will need to rely for now in a series of funding sources - donations, paid writing and speaking, establishing partnerships with organisations, possibly crowdfunding and other strategies.
