# Micro-Altruism / Effective Solidarity

* Practice CEFAR Workshop Techniques in pods?
    * Interesting to: Past CEFAR workshop participants who want a group to play around with CEFAR techniques; people curious about CEFAR and getting to experiment a bit with the techniques in an informal way
    * Requirements: CEFAR mentors to join in the first rounds at least
    * Structure: Perhaps 2-3 hours every 2 weeks?
    * Financial-sharing: Given the high cost of CEFAR workshop, the commitment required is super high. Maybe pod'ing (with potential financial reward to CEFAR mentors) would be a good funnel for the 'actual' workshop and maybe CEFAR would be willing to support.

* Accountability & Habit groups in pods?
    * Interesting to: EAs who want to change their daily habits.
    * Requirements: maybe 4-8 people who would join the pod?
    * Structure: Perhaps 1-2 hours every 2 weeks, just to check-in, continue to build relational soil (more motivating to not disappoint friends with missed goals), etc.
    * Financial-sharing: Could be fun if the habit accountability is financially-driven. People must propose a 'legitimate' habit and 'buy-into' the group, perhaps putting in ~100 USD into the group Paypal/Venmo/etc. If they miss a day (or whatever time period is suitable), then their money is disbursed to the rest of the group. Then they must pay another ~100 USD to join and the game continues.
