Hello!
How it could be different is a website where one can easily see, vote on, comment on, share, and suggest current, innovative ideas in different categories. The site can be thought of as a "Wikipedia for ideas" or a "democratic TED" that features both ideas from the world (TED, think tanks, articles, research papers) and from our community. By collecting ideas in one place and explaining them in an abridged way, How it could be different is able to:
- make it easy to learn about and spread ideas to improve issues, programs, products, and policy
- cause inspiration in thinking about how the world could be different
- determine which ideas and innovations people most support
- provide a forum for suggesting and discussing ideas
- form groups and provide opportunities to potentially bring ideas to life
We are looking to create a network of people whom would be interested to add to our "From the World" idea collection as "Idea Researchers". We are looking for people who can highlight innovative ideas that could be potential solutions to make the world better. We are looking for people who can help us grow and develop into becoming a better resource of ideas and advocacy for social change on the internet. This could lead to a long-term position in the future and we hope to feature our staff on the website soon. We hope to hear from you!
