@benmwine You set the boundaries Sir

Dear Alan (@kasujja),

Sitting down with economist, Dr Fred Muhumuza, I started by asking him why Ugandans – all over the country – were nervous and terrifyingly broke. We talk about taxation, the nature of the economy, etcetera.

Later, we turn to startup schemes, PDM, Emyooga, among others. His words are piercing, precise.

Just wow! And this is in Uganda.

A hospital in rural Uganda runs surgery off-grid, and a surgeon in New York can watch the operation live.

The Mount Sinai Kyabirwa Surgical Facility sits in Jinja, Uganda, built with local labor using red clay dug from nearby sites and fired into brick on location. Those bricks form perforated screen walls that ventilate the entire building naturally, no mechanical cooling anywhere except the sealed operating rooms.

The roof is a canopy of solar panels, shaped after banana leaves, the same plant growing wild around the site. The panels shade the building and power it. A battery system stores enough energy to keep the facility running for two full days if the grid fails, which in that region, it often does.

Twenty miles of underground fiber optic cable connect this rural facility to Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. Surgeons there consult live, video calling directly into operations happening on the ground in Uganda. Water comes from a well and gravity tanks, filtered and sterilized onsite. Roof runoff flushes the toilets and waters a garden that feeds patients and staff. Waste is treated onsite too, nothing trucked out, nothing dependent on infrastructure that doesn't reliably exist there.

This is not a hospital that survives despite being off-grid. It was designed to run better because of it.
