Design thinking future innovators.

Design thinking future innovators.


  1. Promote fun stuff on the cartoon channels where kids are the creators. 

    cartoon shows with advertisements can be designed by kids and can be telecast weekly.

  1. Hidden words of advertisement: how far subliminal messages 

    can be used for a positive change ?

  1. Kids learn from people of their own age, even the cartoonist/animators 

    get to their level to impress so the same pattern needs to be used.

            This NGO team uses volunteers to educate students and teach kids 

            If such NGO can be integrated the message can be passed on 

            better at a younger age.


  1. A picture speaks more than words, use art competition as a medium or 

    ask kids to frame a short animation film with a theme. 

    The idea is not about selecting a winner it is about educating them 

    while they explore creating characters and animation.

     

  2. Be part of the wheel without reinventing a wheel: By nature how gender equality 

    can be made fun while learning is what we need to do by using empathy, 

    if possible have an integrated approach.

Future Generation and brain storm

 

Future Generation and brain storm

1. How to build a good social network within a corporate, so many corporate invest heavily in social initiatives but at times employees' ideas get missed out and don't reach the desired people. Some organizations conduct the week for SDG where employees can share ideas in short form unfortunately social genes come up there out of some 50,000 ideas people use likes and comments to win the challenge and not all do have strong followers. 

How an every deserving idea get a chance to be heard, improved and get recognized what's your suggestion for such an employee/employer?


2. Poverty can't be just won by funding, how far we can have a donate a skill initiative some organization does it where skill gets imparted to underprivileged students one of the dreams of Kalam sir of 2020 of India with education system with skill base how far corporate can help to give such an exposure, catch them young was one such initiative by leading software companies, can a new part-time workforce be had where a skill gets imparted by the companies and in turn, they can be involved as a contractor on live projects and groom their skills?.

What are the difficulties in achieving them?

This is for students who crossed 18years, some countries train kids farming, skill to serve foods especially japan does. This teaches the importance of nature and recycling how far it's achievable everywhere?

3. Having the internet at the nook and corner of a country is very important. So many online courses are available from companies like udemy, upgrade, youtube but all are in English how important a language is to make it a success a small initiative like having a tower in a rural area does help can companies/university adopt a village/district school and provide the necessity to those kids and people? They may explore an alternate market and workforce by having a better brainstorm within an organization to strengthen those ideas some tips can be

check my short story:


Sharing as a short story: https://storymirror.com/read/english/story/joker-inspired-by-graham-bell/8nmkpyus


We can use toastmaster, arts as a medium to get those ideas even the employees may feel recharged during lock-down/hectic projects indirectly it acts as a mental health healer how far these are achievable the art as an therapy can be used to address depression with proper planning in a right way can help in improving an employees work life balance a thought that all corporate needs to check.

4. We can't ignore the role of AI in the future, can companies who invest in them have social experiments by having tie-up with upcoming university courses. They do have a program like a campus connect can they come up and encourage students to come up with the idea and where these company can outsource their skill to complete these projects for a cause, in a way they can groom their workforce and future leaders with design thinking and AI the future technology which world needs.

5. We have an autonomous university, it would be good if a skill forced education system to get imparted where 80% theory and 20 practical what policy are needed to bring such changes into action what is needed how can we achieve?.How an autonomous education system pertaining to current system be developed from grassroots  level? organization like https://honeybee.org/ are present how we can learn from them and impart in education systems?

6. How far it is important to have volunteers from corporate can an NSS kind of approach be used in corporate where credit points get imparted and visibility gets provided to them or as a part of the appraisal process be it considered? 


Life is a rat race, but it can be made meaningful with frequent breaks where an employee can take some mental health break leaves to be part of a social volunteer this can be checked by having an online voting system. Can corporate be able to try such a policy?



7. The green city initiative we can find a way to reuse the old laptop/mobile working or not working it can be given to students or people in need by having a tie-up with the actual companies in some countries this kind of initiatives done to recycle old products can a skill-based training be impacted to the people in a rural area where they can work at offline hours after their regular chores or day time jobs with a minimum toolkit to fix these gadgets with google translated video scripts?

8.Last but not least it would be good to have a corporate community for social welfare a closed linked in community open for all employees and all corporate with no boundary which doesn't get adjudged by likes, is there a way such ideas get read by the corporate leaders, if so how? Out of say, 10,000 ideas 20 may be good but how can we shortlist these 20 can an AI algorithm be developed and used for this? What's your say? Creativity cannot be limited to an area they are powerful we can learn and grow from each other social cause may be one such platform where collaboration and delegation can be used better without reinventing the wheel. 


9. Can an english video gets translated across languages need to explore more.

Change makers a theory

Ideas to change

 

1) Role of media and education system: in raising a better generation: In the 90s there has been a priority in advertising saving a girl child, polio there were campaigns but not seen in an era of technology-driven probably priority is not there. Use student's force by integrating it with NSS and give them recognition for innovative as, apzap,street play, local radio community where bed time stories of pinnochio and cindrella can be narrated to young kids a program dedicated for better parenting in local languages by communication students as part of university ideas. 

2) long term plan: use psychology in addressing the issue of violence in any form, change it as an education policy have it as part of schools at least as a subject, apart from having laws as a topic to know your rights. A crime occurs due to a lack of empathy, see how empathy can be raised in a generation. 

Few materials go share. 

Relay Thoughts 

Better Generation 

Detailed out blog 

3) short term plan: with increasing crime rates law needs to seek guidance from technology, biomedical, and body language experts. Once people we're good fearing and spilled the truth but we are no longer in this era, the law should seek advice by monitoring body languages and experts evaluation and see the possibility of using lie detectors and chemical psychology tests above witness and evidence, there should be the installation of CCTV cameras where ever possible esp public spaces including villages at corners of streets powered by solar lights. 

ref Lie-Detector Test 

4) Collaborative education policy. If the fund is a problem, the nearby colleges and universities should be given an adaptation policy of the villages where they can implement the innovative ideas of their student to develop a village, be it a road laid with plastic waste, be it a technology of CCTV cameras built out of discarded mobile/laptop cameras. Use students from various domains to work in tandem to address an issue by changing part of education policy where students from various backgrounds medical, engineer, management, politics, media all work together as a team for addressing the social issues with innovation. 

5) Better Parenting : Oxytocin levels are the same irrespective of gender, so raise a generation that shares the load with each other to raise a better family. Threat others the way you need yourself to be treated then there will be a change in society.

Stop Harassment

Stop Harassment
The main concept that can be feasible as of now is a campaign from students.

I agree that the government and parents have a role to play in education, but in a country where the illiteracy rate is high, it's going to be difficult and not going to happen soon. Rather than teaching someone, it's better to use empathy, Giving kids with the task, use the street play, write short poems in the native language, sketches/photography, College Radio in the local language, whatever art form, that can convey the message better and after few years ask the people in the community to contribute the same. Apart from communicating the message, the level of communication as well needs to be changed. It's about putting a message in the unconscious mind. Few simple things like narrating about Pinocchio to both girl and boy child can change their personality instead of Cinderella. When it comes to the student, they can use social sites to share the thoughts, it's just the usage of repetitive messaging, this can be part of NSS(National social service) for India. But in other countries, they were asking for a valuable certificate for volunteering, which could help in their career.

 More emphasis needs on long term ideas, they are about

  1. Take the video of the person harassing and moreover be a person who stops it, when one person takes the initiative, others start following them.
  2. Keep the emergency numbers and update the details in apps like safetcity so it helps people to note the area is not safe and the safety team can work with the officials on the needs.
  3. Campaigning using students use journalist article to reach students. http://vramanusocialthoughts.blogspot.in/2014/08/advertisement-and-campaign-from-public.html
  4. Advertisement with the help of the Government in Radio and television. http://vramanusocialthoughts.blogspot.in/2014/08/government-initiated-campaign.html
  5. Articles through students and another journalist.
  6. Social Site Viral Advertisement promotions.  
  7. Children spend more than 80% of the time in school and the Internet than with parents so this is the best place where they can be thought about gender equality and if required feminism subjects can be introduced.
  8. Ref Safer World for Women Long Term:  http://vramanusocialthoughts.blogspot.in/2014/08/dream-of-having-safer-world-forwoman.html
 Ref: to interview of UN Woman India in  Documentary India-A-Dangerous-Place-To-Be-A-Woman


“We need to value women in this country, equally to have gender equality in this society to stop the rape and molestation of women.”


  1. The change won’t happen in a day or so, probably steps should be taken from all sides including government, on the law. http://vramanusocialthoughts.blogspot.in/2014/08/law-and-order.html 
  2. Students and youngsters through communicating through their arts. As mentioned above.
  3. A journal by writing an article with some suggestions and spreading the message to fellow journalist to communicate in local languages, so the ideas get spread across the countries in local languages as well.

Zero Hunger



As the world moving ahead of solving the pollutions, some simple ideas can help in reducing them instead of treating them with some basic initiative.

Food Management:
Grocery Store Perishable Food Management
It’s a well-known fact that food when decomposes produces methane and it is difficult to treat the food management.  Simple initiatives from the Grocery Online stores and Food ordering application can make a change by approaching towards zero hunger and zero waste.
When one knows the shelf life of the raw vegetables and fruits, proper management of it can reduce the waste. Say if a fruit / vegetable / Perishable food like bread is about to get spoiled by the next day they can use their delivery team to deliver them to the nearby homes or government school where the mid-day meals gets produced. If its possible they can collaborate with the small vendors as well where they can contribute the food which may get rotten the next day. So in this way the food waste gets minimised.

Food delivery team
Food delivery vendor as well can have the same approach, with so many hotels being connected one can donate the foods which they feel which may not be ordered by the customers. The delivery team can deliver the food for the people who require and can get a signature or so which can serve as points to show how much the company / hotel has contributed for zero hunger and minimized the pollution.

Corporate contribution
Collection of the peel wastes, seeds from the natural fruit juices or vegetable juice shops can be used for land filling. This land filling along with some guidance from permaculture team can help in farming and can turn the barren land to fertile to an extent. With corporate office bus operating around the city to out of city. They can carry the peel wastes with proper lid containers. With so many corporates contributing the same, it can make a difference to the life of farmers and even for individuals who plan to grow the vegetables and fruits in their home.
Have screen saver tips to on the actions that can be done as an employee and as a citizen.

Segregation of the waste in community:
Be it a corporate or a building community segregate the waste into 3 components:
Electronics waste, (Black bin)
Paper, Plastic clothes (Blue Bin)
 Bio degradable waste (Green Waste)
The Bio degradable wastes can be used for land filling of a non-fertile land by working with permaculture techniques and using earth worms etc.
Have a sticky packaging by minimising the tapes involved
By using the electronic wastes, one can remove the useful components like metals etc. which was used during the soldering of the components etc.
By using the paper and clothes one can see the feasibility of reusing the same. Some online organization has the facility to return the cardboards and papers to the delivery team. So the same organization act as a bin with some small patch up they can reuse with proper packaging mechanism.
When it comes to clothes more eco-friendly fibres needs to be used, the clothes can be recycled and can be donated to the poor in need with some patch up work. The same can be shared to the students from NSS background who can share the same to the NGO.

Fashion: Though fashion industry is trying to address the problem of their contribution toward pollutions a simple approach from parents can make a change in how the future generation lives.
Instead of buying the plastic based accessories, encourage the kids to focus more on environmental friendly one. Let the kids design the accessories and share it to Food Company and they can implement the design as a package out of the nuts. The company can contribute to orphanages in the name of the kids who participated the competition.  These are not only bio degradable, this helps in reducing the obesity and keeps the kids away from junk food, makes you kids a better human. Share a design to become a better human.

Owning responsibility: While going for a grocery purchase check the food stock in your refrigerators and buy what is necessary. Cook what is necessary and eat and drink wisely.

Prevent Trafficking


                                                             Prevent Trafficking


Violence and Trafficking : There are various reason for trafficking, internal conflicts etc….. but the major reason is lack of awareness and insecurity of an individuals. As per some reports  major number of children and teenagers have been kidnapped or been abused . These kids were attracted to the strangers in name of love, especially when both the parents were working. One need to ensure and share the thought once in a while to kids that their parents love them. The communication gap between them is a major reason for kids becoming an online prey.

Awareness
Application like Safe City can help in identifying the locations where children and women are not safe. 

Share a stort / poem /stage show / street show / Role Play/ puppet show / Create a computer game with various characters based on real life incidences ask children to choose any art and perform as a special program. 

Telecast radio show and documentary films, Gardens of night (2008) is one such film that shows the truth of trafficking every parent needs to watch. 

Share pinterest in the social media, so it gets the attention of the mass number of people.

Street Light
Areas where street lights are not present, as well becomes a crime prone zone.Ensure streetlights are there with proper settings with grills across the light, so glasses doesn't breaks them.

Major reason for crime are because of the lack of fulfillment of an individual, while satisfying the lowest level of the Maslow principles. If one gets freed of the basic needs, crime level can be reduced. 

Repetitive  advertisement on the principle and values of humans can groom better humanity. If the humanity and values gets preserved in the individuals there is no need of the punishment, law etc as the values triggers the guilt and servers the judge, Crimes are been committed by people without realizing it is an crime. Thoughts of Buddha needs to spread, not for spreading Buddhism, but it serves as rule book for a person, how one needs to live. If one doesn’t values others life as their own , crime and violence doesn’t stop.


Phone for a child: The idea of mobile, is to reuse the mobiles that gets dumped during the phone exchange offers. Most of the phones can be tracked as mentioned in https://www.wikihow.tech/Find-a-Stolen-Android-Phone  so in the places where human security is a concern, if these phones gets donated to people, this tracking facility can be used to track a child. For the mobile companies it is a social cause and the government we are recycling a product and pollution as well will be reduced.

Tie up with Wild life / Media Team : It’s a well-known fact that lot of people women and children gets abducted in forest. But surviving in forest isn’t easy, on a whole one needs to cook the food, food needs to be brought from town and more over one needs to settle next to a water body when the electricity isn’t present. So setup some cameras at the entry exit of a forest roads and near the water bodies and rivers where the stream speed is less or where there is a bridge. One can set camera on animals as well in crime zones. As most of these are been used by wild life journalist, and Camera companies sponsor them. Have a tie up with them, the data collected by them can be helpful.

Some of the photography can be captured by tying to an animal where based on suspect, if infra red mode of camera gets used one can capture more details, Journals which deals in photography can guide in this case as they use most of these gadgets on daily basis.

Animal's reaction to fire:
Animal's response to fire can help in monitoring,a area, most of the animals tend to runaway from fire, if this area can be captured or if one can trace the fire/smoke esp camp fire when food gets cooked. One can find the lost child or people in remote areas.

Human Security


Human Security:

Security from poverty: Poverty is one of the major crisis, one cannot reduce poverty by donating money and food. Poverty can be reduced by humanity, awareness and innovation. Involve the youngsters affected from poverty in innovation projects with right guidance. In UNHCR some innovation projects has been conducted, let them innovate the solution to the problem and create a job opportunity. One can raise a farm with minimum efforts, money can be raised by selling those vegetables. Make people to fight not to depend. 

Hunger Security : In case of ensuring the hunger security there are some research that Banana and Eggs can server the required nutrients for children, if one can teach these people how to farm with the minimum resources at least lot of life can be saved with this minimal nutrients.

Survive Natural Disaster: Skill based education:
Invest in skill based training to the people and community one cannot avoid natural disaster but one teach people how to cope up with it.

Build a self-sustainable tent:
Building Algae frame / dung cake based shelter, powered by off-grid system with help of refugees

Education in remote areas, with or without internet
Technology Based Modified Curriculum for Education

Campaign based awareness through accessible mediums

One of the basic skill one needs to possess is observation and learn from nature, the best designer is nature it creates and destroys life, but never pollutes anything. It is self-sustain that anything that decomposes serves as a life serving stuff for others. If one can remember and work as per nature life will be easier deviation from it will always create issues.
