Cool. Unless you’re planning to move >20 people all at once (insanity), I figure it’s better to pitch and discuss through personal correspondence rather than a pro-forma precommitment.
Once people have actually moved, you’ll get more widespread interest, so you can create a form where people register to move if there are >N people, where N is 50 or 500.
By that point, you’re basically overtly founding a new radical activist community, though, so you’d better get good at careful public relations.
nods, makes sense. My current guess is that at least initially most people would spend 3 months to a year visiting while working on something specific rather than moving as permanent residents.
I’d be aiming less for an activist community in the country, more a tech/startup/research hub for people with an interest in fixing global problems. I don’t foresee a focus on influencing the host country. Good point that perceptions around that are important though. I’m very open to advise and assistance from people with PR skills on how to present this.
