We present alternatives to the dominant proprietary excluding innovation model, to drive development towards a responsible, solidar society.
 
== Purpose ==
 
=== Mission ===
We federate not-for-profit communities enhancing collective health, enabling individuals to better take care of their health, and build more resilient healthcare systems through co-created, freely reproducible technologies.
 
We lead and support a set of cooperation-driven, multidisciplinary, science-backed projects that foster solidarity and peer to peer contribution.
 
We strive to mutualize efforts and tools, and help shape a common-ground for like-minded projects to work together on common outcomes.
 
=== Values ===
For us,
* quality of cooperation prevails over competition
* mutual support prevails over technical expertise
* freedom of adaptation rather than excluding propriety
* with and by user communities rather than for them
* creation-as-research<ref>Champman OB, Sawchuk K. Research-Creation: Intervention, Analysis and "Family Resemblances". Canadian Journal of Communication 2012; 37(1). <nowiki>https://cjc-online.ca/index.php/journal/article/view/2489</nowiki></ref> rather than research after creation
 
=== Benefits ===
For people taking part in the GHF Open Village, we envision following benefits:
* sharing practices including open design, manufacturing of medical devices vs reproducibility, multidisciplinary community building, etc.
* mutualizing resources such as expertise of people affected, access to caregivers, health data infrastructures etc.
* developing common projects such as raising funds to test devices in various settings, hosting events to raise awareness on open health, etc.
* advocating for ‘public money, public-driven innovation’ policies in healthcare<ref>Free Software Foundation Europe. Public money, public code. 2021. <nowiki>https://publiccode.eu</nowiki></ref>
