You should put some boundaries around the types of problems you want people to solve. ‘World hunger’ and ‘peace in the middle east’ are obviously out of scope of a site like this, but you’ll get others that will fall into the ‘wicked problem’ category. Problems that relate to social issues for example. Or even technological problems that cause or stem from social issues. I don’t recall who came up with it but there’s a social theorist who stated that anyone trying to ‘solve’ wicked problems is either ill-informed about the nature of the problem, or has other motives. The best outcome is to improve the situation for those affected by it. It’s kinda hand wavy pop psychology sometimes, but it’s important to understand the concept before wading knee deep into something and making the problem worse for all involved. |
