Overview
Overview:
The aim of the prize is to find models or frameworks for international cooperation, capable of addressing the interlinked risks and problems of climate change, other large-scale environmental damage, violent conflict (including nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction), extreme poverty, and expected continuing rapid population growth. The competition is not looking for blueprints for solving the individual issues in question, or to avert specific risks. Rather, entrants should focus on designing a decision-making structure or framework that could galvanize effective international action to tackle these risks. The proposed model may encompass an entirely new global framework or a proposed reform for existing systems.

Spud’s Thoughts:
Essentially, this prize is about creating a UN 2.0. If you are a big picture thinker and like to think on a structural level, this competition could use your brain-power. I don’t have any connections to it other than it floated past my radar.
