Ask your neighbour

Describe your idea:

There are probably people from every nation living in the UK – this is a great unused resource of knowledge. Governments/ local authorities/ people around the world are facing similar problems and coming up with inventive solutions to them.

Let’s establish a website were people are faced with a question/problem and then have the opportunity to explain how this is solved in their home countries/ towns. Ask a question per month, let users set up wiki-style pages where they can describe how this is solved in their home country/ town. Reward and share the best contributions at the end of the month. Example issues could be healthcare, public infrastructure, exchange, child and elderly care, …

What problem does it solve?:

* Ignorance about good political solutions around the world
* Local governments only seeing the world through their eyes
* Governments around the world re-inventing the wheel all the time
* No way for good local solutions to spread

Type of idea: A brand new project
