What is it?

S4G, the un-mediated, not moderated social platform

Have you ever thought you have something to “express” with a social dimension but never had the opportunity to do it?

Then S4G is what you are looking for:

  • Open, unrestricted and easy to use
  • Three mediums to choose from: TEXT, VIDEO, PHOTO
  • A way to express your ideas, reflections and expertise, on social issues and broader development and society at large
  • You do not need to be an expert but just passionate about what you share

Kathmandu was lucky, yesterday, to get an opportunity to understand and discuss issues of sustainability with Samar Jodha. As a thought leader, his body of work represents and coalesces many disparate strains of our built environment. People are central. Social communication is never easy but always best projected in experiential terms. We tend to reduce rather than mitigate.

It is legitimate for technology to be driven by a profit making logic but the problem is with the way the society has become too inclined to follow blindly the pursuit of new devices whose sales are aggressively boosted by aggressive marketing. What is not necessary become essential and yet it is not contributing in making our lives any better.

राज्यले ज्येष्ठ नागरिक, एकल महिला, अपांगहरुलाई सामाजिक सुरक्षा भत्ता उपलब्ध गराउँदै आएको छ । छलफलका क्रममा ज्येष्ठ नागरिकहरुले आफुले ६ महिनाको २ हजार ७ सय ५० रुपैयामात्र भत्ता पाएको बताए । नियमतः मासिक ५०० का दरले ६ महिनाको ३ हजार रुपैया पाउनुपर्ने हो । तर मैले भेटेका सबै जनाले ६ महिनाको सामाजिक सुरक्षा भत्ताबाट २ सय ५० रुपैया काटिएको बताए । यो थाहा पाउँदा मलाई आश्चर्य लाग्यो ।
