THREAD: Citizen watch groups #All4Lebanon @All4Lebanon
One of the amazing & positive things coming off the recent nakba in our country is how a group of concerned citizens organically pulled their expertise together for the greater good and the benefit of all.

The NERDS are spread out all over the world, come from various backgrounds and (am sure) have differing political leanings. But the NERDS put all that aside to focus on how their finance expertise could help the country they love.

Results were smashing: in less than 3 months, NERDS exposed financial shenanigans going on for 30 years, helped raise awareness in the broader population & gained the respect of experts, local and international, giving the NERDS access to Gov & mainstream media (TV, print).

I expect and hope the NERDS can continue serving this role, that of a concerned and expert watch group on all things financials, both guiding and influencing people in power, as well as providing much needed controls.

But the country needs more, much more. We should be using a similar approach to create NERDS-like think tanks in other areas, such as: environment, health, women rights, childhood abuse, consumer protection, education, small business expertise and much much more...

Environment: the air we breathe, the water we drink and swim in, the food we eat are ALL contaminated.
Our forests are in danger of disappearing.
Our rivers are chemical sewers.
Our coast line has been stolen.

Health crisis management: we need our doctors and nurses to be out there, explaining to the broader public how fucked up we are because of the incompetence of our government and how best to manage the current epidemic.

I am sure there are experts out there who are itching to help within their fields. Please letβs use this platform to do that.
If you are a doctor, a nurse, a healthcare professional, an environmentalist, etc. who wants to share thoughts, please, Lebanon needs you NOW.

If you know one of the above, please tag them and encourage them to help.
We *need* experts to raise hell, because our governments have made our lives hell.
Please share widely.
