💡 In simple words: A program is a big project that puts several WikiDeal markets together, like housing plus activities plus learning, so people can do many things in one place.
Welcome to the WikiDeal programs home page. A program is a combination of several marketplaces brought together into one coherent, global experience (for example housing + activities + training). A single marketplace, such as babysitting, is not itself a program; it is a service used within one or more programs.
Programs are the operational backbone of WikiDeal: they turn contracts and use cases into real-world journeys by orchestrating several markets into a coherent path. There is no fixed number of programs; new ones are added as the community proposes them. Programs are grouped into thematic categories (Technology, Market, Social, Artistic, Retail).
This page is the counterpart of the Markets home: Markets describe the individual marketplaces and portals, Programs describe how several markets combine.
Example programs
The following are example programs being explored. They are illustrative, not a closed list.
Social
- Volunteering Program: contribution through time and skills, open to all, from basic tasks (babysitting, cleaning, cooking) to high-value contributions (strategic advice, working groups, facilitation). Formation by doing. Includes the Shared Resources stimulation mechanism. Participants earn Miles Credits.
- Eco-Village Transition Program: transition to cooperative living in eco-villages. Combines housing contracts, volunteering agreements, freelance service provision and project incubation. Multi-marketplace by nature.
- Education Program: learn a skill and earn Credits at the same time, with competence credits validated through practice and usable in Rings of Trust. Combines a tutoring marketplace, a certification process and peer-review validation.
Market
- Real Estate Program: valorisation of empty properties through Senior/Junior incubator teams, with 8 competence modules (photography, pricing, furnishing, guest management, contracts, legal, community governance, reporting). Could create local WikiDeal real estate agencies.
- Street Fundraising Program: flexible street dialogue for NGOs and associations, with 3 contracts (association to user group, association to dialoguer, donation), revenue spreading, Boost mechanism and bidirectional evaluation.
- Microcredit Program: transparent microcredit circles and mutual aid networks (tontines), with auditable contracts and a proper arbitration framework. Combines a loan marketplace, savings circles and peer-guarantee systems.
- Transport Program: migration of transport cooperatives to WikiDeal infrastructure, including ridesharing and vehicle sharing (not traditional taxi dispatch). Members keep their brand; WikiDeal would provide the back-office contracts.
Technology
- Rings & Alliances Program: user groups forming alliances and Rings of Trust, with contracts for shared Miles Credits usage rights and interoperability agreements (usage coefficients 1 to 10). Encourages cooperation over forking.
- Community Migrations Program: support for migrating entire communities and their existing agreements onto WikiDeal infrastructure.
Retail
- Recycling & Upcycling Program: social entrepreneurship through recycling, carpentry-recycling, electronics refurbishment and textile upcycling. Artisan workshops and maker spaces.
Programs and the rest of the Markets space
Programs sit alongside the other parts of the Markets home:
- Portals group the individual marketplaces.
- Programs (this page) combine several marketplaces into a journey.
- Observatories watch and document a field (for example planned obsolescence, competition, free legal watch).
- Rings of Trust are the circles of mutual trust in which Credits and guarantees are shared.
- Toolbox holds the clause bases, endorsed contract models, legal references and compensation rules.
Contribute
You are very welcome to propose a new program, document an existing one, or join a user group working on the markets and programs you care about.
