the 3D vision

Hi All,earlier this year after Acumenfund refused to make me a fellow( now I realised how badly I wanted that). I decided that I was going to take some time off the development path and try to get rich.I figured that if I could have my own millions to throw around, I wouldnt need to throw proposals around trying to get funds to power my ideas.Well despite all that I am back working on another model that seeks to solve the problem of development using technology. Here's the Idea:

The 3D: The developer, development and the developing world.The developer is anyone that can articulate a solution to a well defined problem, while development in this case will be the solutions that are developed as a result of the ideas of the developer.

THE SITUATION NOW
The general approach in attempting to solve Africa’s problem had always been to transfer an already successful solution from another part of the world to Nigeria. However this approach has suffered a lot of setbacks because it doesn’t put into consideration the local reality of the target population.
WHAT WE PROPOSE?
3D’s vision is to approach this problem from the local reality in essence you discuss what the problem is and we can together create a TECHNOLOGY based solution for it. This approach will definitely solve the dead aid quagmire in which Nigeria and the continent has always found itself.
KINDLY LET US REASON TOGETHER
A computer programmer is a developer who can use the computer to create solutions to problems based on the problem definition they had received.
Who prepares the problem definition?
The person who understands the problem most and can articulate its solution best.
What are we saying?
We are saying that even more important that the Computer programmer is the person who understands the problem to be solved. This is exactly what 3D is championing. 3D sees a future where everyone can see themselves as a developer no matter their discipline or educational achievement. 3D wants to help beat the fear of the non-techie folks and encourage them to come forward with their developmental ideas so that a perfect team can be form to deliever the best solutions and develop our country there by.
