Organise to help build a better future at HelpBuildABetterFuture.org

Societies need a complimentary range of public tools for citizens to explore their impacts on others.

The tool proposed here registers positive and negative human value impacts, accounting for the strength of peoples feelings, concerns and intuitions:-

…providing a space for everyone’s perspectives and values to be represented fairly.

…giving us the opportunity to know the people we affect and how strongly they feel.

…enabling safe communications with those whose actions effect us most.

…providing the knowledge and understanding we need to think and act on what people care about the most….and recognition for doing it.

PURPOSE

I want to help as many people as I can, as much as I can…

and to help others do the same.

That the most profound way to help, is to establish progressive social norms and expectations through genuine dialog.

That we should include as many people as possible in the development and expression of shared human values.

…that these principles apply in nearly every sphere and scale of concern.

We need a safe intuitive place where everyone can describe, advocate, reflect on and develop together, the things they care about (their Values), and what we can do about them (our Prospects). 

The short term aim of this project is to demonstrate that thoughtful social deliberation can equip us to take more effective care of ourselves, each other and the future.

Well OK , I’ve described an idea, but I’m out of date, out of practice, and on my own.

I care about this a lot. If you feel the same way, then I’d really like to know!

I need help… to synthesise a modern application e.g., choosing and using an appropriate Tech and Software ‘stack’, Integrating innovative informatics, academic and professional aspects of sense making, UX/UI design for deliberation, incorporating techniques for Conflict resolution and Argument capture. Developing ways to crowd-source definitions (ontologies and taxonomies), and then supporting the evolution of people and their vocabulary via communication. Testing the results…Finding institutional and philanthropic supporters willing to help, making the work open source…
