hacking social business: reverse engineering Bienestar's businee plan.




"Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a human made device, object or system through analysis of its structure, function and operation."


During the last week, as a group, we worked together to prepare a structured analysis and critique to the document that had been sent to us by the Grameen Creative Lab inherent to the "Bienestar" project, which is taking place in the region of Caldas, Colombia.
The analytical model that we applied to the document is, actually, the "reverse engineering" one; in this sense we have isolated, deconstructed and analyzed every single point of it with the prospective to grasp all the possible pros and cons.
The tangible benefit that can be drawn from this type of investigation, as well as the exercise itself, is the possibility of improving an existing template or, from its fbases, to try creating an entirely new and more efficient one.
