Competition for housing in Caribbean - Build In Carib BI3C

Visual board (in french)

Inspiration

I am the bearer of projects for the creation of activities in the construction industry in relation with the ultra-marine population. I am a construction economics student entrepreneur. I carry a project of creation of activities which would be an International Competition for students in construction economics, architecture and engineering, and retirees of these professions, to design processes for the construction of sustainable housing in the territories of the Caribbean by favoring short circuits and international cooperation. The competition will be virtual and online. Participants will have the choice between different case analyzes which they will be responsible for improving the construction process by being a source of proposals to serve the objectives of sustainable development. They will have to imagine associations of actors in the field of Caribbean construction with reliable innovations by favoring short circuits. The platform will have to be able to do collaborative work and that contest participants can exchange and view IFC files as well as spreadsheets and graphics for comparative studies, and also be able to communicate by synchronous and asynchronous discussion. on the same interface. It would also be nice if there could be automatic language translators for discussions and work documents. This platform is intended to be a social network on which the beneficiaries will appreciate the content of the virtual events that will take place.

As I want to create a training organization, I need an application to supervise the work of trainers, manage resources and track learners. They will also have a blog on which to contribute in the social network which will interact with observant users.

I seek to create a network of professionals interested in the construction of sustainable buildings which I will advertise on this platform which will also be open to the public wishing to learn about this theme. The platform should allow for webinars and virtual coffee for speakers whose services I will also promote. I am thinking of algorithms to present them according to the geolocation of construction project promoters who will have access to this platform after registering and filling out a form to provide information such as the location of their projects and their interests. I also intend to dropship books on construction with the publisher Eyrolles: https://www.eyrolles.com/Partenariat/ and this should be offered to them on their user interfaces. Professionals will also be able to have a user profile with a selection of books and services from my partners offered on their interfaces.

I will also need a resource database search engine to list resources (most often in the form of links to other sites) but also which will be quite large files.

Several user profiles will therefore be needed: participants in the competition, users (project leaders, professionals, curious people without an immediate project, technical partners (software publishers, manufacturers, suppliers of materials, resources and services, donors and promoters real estate), institutional and territorial. Free access (depending on the time of year) and paid access in the form of subscriptions for unlimited connection hours or à la carte (connection time per hour, monthly flat rate) will be required. or annual) depending on the size of the resources consulted or downloaded.

I am thinking of adding a map to it to reference all my partners, in particular training, education and research centers as well as service providers for businesses and professionals, and material suppliers. The logistics for transport (sea and road freight) will have to be added on another more complete map on the platform for the contest participants so that they can analyze the possibilities of logistics and calculate the costs as well as the carbon footprint .

The primary objective of this platform is to provide information on innovations around the world in anti-cyclonic and para-seysmic construction and to know the actors who want to achieve the objectives of sustainable development in construction in humid tropical zones.

I already rent a server at Pulseberg which hosts the Yunohost platform on which I plan to rely and I have already selected the open-source applications that will be on it with a project manager. He told me that all I needed was a developer to connect the applications into user interfaces. In principle, I only need the services of a developer to do so.
