<\/p>\n
Additionally, The Oxford Community Co-Lab™ will utilize AwareComm\u2019s patented PWI Readiness for Change, PWI 5 Dimensions of Recovery Process and Applied Knowledge Transfer™ <\/em>Programs<\/strong>. PWI 5 Dimensions of Recovery Process has a 91% proven success rate.<\/p>\nThe Co-Lab develops purpose-driven strategic partnerships that link homeless shelters, recovery (homes, programs and treatment centers) to businesses and the community. It provides a path and gateway for homeless people to not only get back on their feet, but to get back on their feet within a supportive community, while working and learning to earn a living. This process therefore, creates strategic partnerships between Homeless and Recovery Co-Lab and Business Communities.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The solution includes Personal, Organizational, Employment and Family resources.<\/strong> All elements include \u201cReadiness for Change\u201d educational courseware and addiction intervention, prevention and aftercare programs. They provide the cultural shift that is needed within the homeless community \u2013 so they can find value in who they are, rather than what they have come to believe about themselves and the world.<\/p>\nOverview Of The Oxford Community Co-Lab™<\/h3>\n
The Oxford Community Co-Lab™<\/strong> is an app-based platform + process + managed service<\/em><\/strong>. The collaborative platform provides the optimum environment to:<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/\/pocketwisdominsights.com\/pwicolab\/wp-content\/uploads\/Vet_Empower-Develop-Activate-Implement-Define-e1525033752588.png\")
<\/p>\n
This allows for an eco-system system of support in which all participants experience unity and empowerment.<\/p>\n
The Co-Lab™ platform plus<\/em> process includes deliverable eModular Apps (eMods™) that support perceptions, thinking and communicating with proven and accepted values, principles and relational models, which guide a project to bring forth a structure for effortless collaboration.<\/p>\nThe Co-Lab™ architecture allows us to seamlessly connect and integrate multiple complex platforms<\/strong> into a single eco-system<\/strong>: Communication Tracking, Analytics and Reporting (complete with sentience measurement).<\/em><\/p>\nThe Executive Co-Lab™ team is being assembled as illustrated below:<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/\/pocketwisdominsights.com\/pwicolab\/wp-content\/uploads\/co-lab_community_model.png\")
<\/i><\/p>\nResearch-Driven: Social Culturally Responsible Projects<\/h3>\n
The battle to find funding for social projects is becoming increasingly difficult in today\u2019s world. What would it be like to have access to reliable funding sources? What if we could fund research to develop solutions to our social problems that would result in a duplicatable, transferable and scalable methodology (packaged and deliverable) that would become:<\/p>\n
\n- Self-Funding<\/strong> (By Private Donations)<\/li>\n
- Self-Perpetuating<\/strong> (Attraction Based on Proven Success)<\/li>\n
- Self-Regulating<\/strong> (Resulting in Active Membership Contribution)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This approach would attract purpose-driven investors wanting to experience their seed funding, resulting in ongoing benefits capable of becoming self-sustaining after the initial startup phase. Seed not Feed.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/\/pocketwisdominsights.com\/pwicolab\/wp-content\/uploads\/awarecomm-valueprop.png\")
Their approach would clearly define:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- The Problem<\/li>\n
- The (Root) Cause of the Problem<\/li>\n
- The Cost of the Problem\n
\n- Socially<\/li>\n
- Individually<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- The Social Benefits of the Planned Outcome to:\n
\n- The Community<\/li>\n
- Individual Participants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- The Return on Investment (ROI)\n
\n- The Community<\/li>\n
- Individual Participants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- Research Analytics with Elements of Influence\n
\n- Beginning Sentient<\/li>\n
- Progress Sentient<\/li>\n
- Conclusion Sentient<\/li>\n
- Ongoing Implementation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This solution would enable Social Entrepreneurs<\/em><\/strong> to obtain a sustainable Oxford Community Co-Lab™.<\/strong><\/p>\nSolution-Driven: Cultural Development, Sustainability and Research<\/h3>\n
The replication crisis continues within the social sciences and humanities arena. To secure funding and support we see the need for Social Model programs to produce MEASURABLE RESULTS - EVIDENCE-BASED, REPLICATABLE AND SCALEABLE PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS. We see the need for data science to go beyond algorithms and focus on standardized, scalable and evidence-based program delivery and data collection that reduces confirmation bias and minimizes skewed data.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nAwareComm\u00ae<\/sup> is revolutionizing the data science world with its patent-pending Sentient Analysis™ data gathering and analysis process<\/strong>. The process incorporates the Socratic Method and copyrighted relational models to effectively quantify human behavior \u2013 to support and empower rather than manipulate like contemporary data analysis methods.<\/p>\nThe sustainability of the any project or program relies on research and evidence-based practices. Today, we see the need for data science to go beyond algorithms and focus on how we collect data to ensure confirmation bias is reduced and skewed data minimized.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Encouraging research and development, AwareComm\u00ae<\/sup> provides a quick, easy and effective way (see model below) for Co-Labs to get established and funded as research institutes. The model ensures Co-Labs are implemented, funded and sustained through businesses and universities. This symbiotic relationship ensures sustainability of all stakeholders through re-investment and recurring benefits from the partnership.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/\/pocketwisdominsights.com\/pwicolab\/wp-content\/uploads\/awarecomm-philanmodel.png\")

The Mentoring Component of The Oxford Community Co-Lab™<\/h3>\n
Business wisdom, tribal wisdom, trainings, interventions and programs need to be captured,<\/strong> measured, packaged, published, transferred and shared with the world.<\/strong> It is important that we not only pack and present the content, but transfer the wisdom in a way that it can be applied to the lives of people: young and old, near and far.<\/p>\nThe Oxford Community Co-Lab™ <\/strong>provides a mentorship model that supports Applied Knowledge Transfer™<\/em> through transformational and experiential learning. This model also serves to add economic and social benefit to the Oxford Community, trainers, homeless and addicts rights communities and movements worldwide.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"\/\/pocketwisdominsights.com\/pwicolab\/wp-content\/uploads\/awarecomm-mentor-bilateralcom.png\")
