How could we build a discussion platform to solve complex and international problems?
How could the structure of discussions on complex problems be translated to an online interface in order for a community to collaborate on solving those problems?
I think our world needs an online governance platform. A platform which allows people to facilitate, discuss, mediate, structure, build up and understand issues, solutions and knowledge.
A collaborative platform where everyone could work on policy and debate and make things happen.
This could be all areas: personal, community, political, corporate and organisational, NGO and non-profit governance.
The idea is to weigh, discuss, structure and mediate projects/questions/problems that arrive from a community-based website comparable to, yet more complex than Quora. I'm developing a workflow which could serve as an example. Please let me know if you'd like to join the brainstorm.
