I wonder if there is a grey area where tech solutions can help push slow ideas by easing if not the “talking” then the spreading of ideas.<p>Let&#x27;s say a FB group for nurses in Uttar Pradesh, where they can share their thoughts and ideas. You&#x27;d use the foot-approach to educate a part of the group. They can then gather experience, validate their learning and spread that. The idea would be that tech makes the idea spread faster, with you having to educate <i>less</i> people by foot.<p>The impact might be improved by working geographically, so that each nurse talking to the nurses she knows would be unlikely to talk to one already educated. But then, maybe overlapping groups would reinforce the learning. :p<p>Also, reminds me of an idea of an NGO had to record testimonies by voice calls, and then playing these testimonies to their peers. Still not the same as building a relationship, but probably goes in the same direction.
