Post-colonialist Ecotourism

Overview

Savimbo post-colonialist ecotourism is a community payment layer that offers travel experiences hosted by Indigenous and local communities on shared and equal terms. The program frames tourism as educational and experiential, with community designed and immersive visits arranged on the communities' own terms and with limited availability. Revenue from these experiences flows to the host communities through Savimbo's collective payment system, reducing the number of intermediaries between buyers and the people doing conservation work. It is offered alongside Savimbo biodiversity, carbon, and agroforestry programs.

01 · Roles

The workflow as an explicit directed graph. In Graph each column is one role, so you can see who acts at each step; every node names the org.broadlistening.policy.block.* def it resolves to plus its input and output record. Data flow switches to a lineage view that makes explicit what data each node needs and makes, with dependency arcs tracing every record back to the node that produced it, including where the Darwin Core occurrence + measurement records feed in. Hover to trace, click to inspect; revise edges (dashed) send work back.

03 · Generated lexicon records

The records this methodology compiles to, ready to write to a PDS. The first tabs are the new policy engine records; the ★ claim.activity tab and those after it are reused ATProto Collective Funding Ecosystem records (org.hypercerts.*): the issued hypercert batch, its rights, an example verification attachment and a retirement receipt. The ◈ dwc.occurrence and ◈ dwc.measurement tabs are the Darwin Core field evidence the monitoring node writes; see the section below.
