cultural exchange

i understand cultural differences would put country's at odds as to importance of needs.
we are all different, but shelter, food, clothing, the basic needs are the same.
after that it gets diverse...
1. school and library
2. hospital and supply depot
3. power/engineering/electrical
4. communications/survey tech
5. minerals production/mine engineering

but what is first? water, food, shelter, ....then what?
i ask all of you what you believe the next steps would be, if i may so bold to ask.

im inclined to say im here with my camper so i got food shelter and cloths, next step for me is check on game trails, avail of fish, water, fire wood, survey area, make map, locate rich soil to garden, forage areas for berries, identify herbs and edible wild in my vicinity. if im with friends then the next day id expand on the basecamp and make a defensive strategy for different scenario's {for whatever reasons}. with basic fortifications in place and basecamp re-inforced, a foraging detail would be first, once again stock up on berries fish firewood, and carry on with surveying game trails for a trap line.
descisions can be made as to building materials and different aproaches, on the go.

a couple days into learning and re-freshing changes everything. now i see that cold storage buildings waterproof and in the ground is needed. and tree houses for food storage. latrines and showers have to be 300 feet from camp and more from running water source. so building up the first two years. then my friends, i see a whole new set of directions. when comfort hits, to have an observatory with telescope and library to cross reference,
medicinal herbal hospital that cures diseases, power sources that are self sustaining, clean purified water, clothing plants and materials for rope, anyway...homestead first, garden, foraging, and fish. getting the base established to be self sufficient, power water food,home,communication. meeting ground,common place, open to all.
it is from there that we go out to establish other places, aken to each of us, with the support from the rest, we each get a homestead. and always have the common ground to fall back on or stay at. in the very least, a common ground is a campsite thats always avail to you....

so here is my query..
     from the diverse backgrounds of all of us, to everyone reading this...what do you think? where are your concirns from your point of view...maybe something different.
