Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

The project empowers women and people of color in developing countries and climate-vulnerable communities to make high-technology products using low technology tools and infrastructure to help solve climate change at the local level. Anyone can use, make, and sell the patented building products for building better buildings all the way up to the zero-emission standard. The answer to question 14 describes additional benefits of the project.
