Open Source Ecology Germany/Open Source Economy

The mission of Open Source Ecology (OSE) Germany is creating an Open Source Economy, an economy that optimizes both production and distribution while providing environmental regeneration and social justice.

We take the best practices for the technological, natural and social systems, improve them continually according to long-term sustainability values and share them to everyone. See it visually:

Technology

We focus first on improving the technology through Collaborative Open Hardware Development and Open Business Models, and optimizing its distribution.

Collaborative Open Hardware Development

We develop economically significant technologies in the sectors housing, construction, farming, renewable energy, transportation, fabrication and more, according to long-term sustainability Core Values like replicability, modularity, scalability, simplicity, low-cost, high performance, use of local and natural resources.

The distribution of the technologies is optimized through open sourcing the designs and production processes, creating rapid learning materials and gaining experience through hands-on workshops.

Open Business Models

The transparency and open sharing of the business models and their improvement on-the-go enables adaptive and sustainable business structures for everyone.

Implications

Once the technologies and business models are open sourced, people with access to flexible fabrication workshops can download the designs, adapt them to their local environment if needed and build the technologies. Then they share back their improvements and innovations and create additional value locally and globally. This open innovation cycle repeats itself and boosts rapidly economical improvements worldwide. The implications are enormous:

• Together we are able to develop the worldwide most open and sustainable technologies,
• localize the production and the economy,
• secure our basic needs,
• overcome artificial resource scarcity,
• live a culture of openness, cooperation and solidarity,
• have more free time for higher goals,
• and the human potential is unleashed.
• Future generations inherit all open source documentation and physical technologies, and build upon it. Their wellbeing depends on our actions now!
