    Hey Afiz,

    Great question, and an insightful one to be asking!
    To the best of my knowledge, there are not any known issues with what you’re describing. However, there is still the chance that there may be a cultural dimension to this idea that you’ll need to factor in.

    I would suggest that you proceed with this plan, but include in your report a short section on how you are aware of this potentiality and the engagement process you would undertake with community to understand those cultural considerations and to co-design an appropriate solution.

    Cheers,

    luke
