The Darwin Challenge charity is inspired by Charles Darwin and brought to life by 11 remarkable co-founders, including Charles’ great great grandson, Chris Darwin.
Our vision is to: ‘Help humanity ADAPT to the realities of the 21st Century’
Problem
The 20th Century saw improvements in many human welfare metrics but deteriorations in environmental and animal welfare metrics. What went well? What went wrong? How can humanity progress faster and on all fronts?
Solution
We are undertaking ground-breaking research that will help NGOs and charities rapidly have greater impacts.
Stage 1
Quantifiably rank the top ten:
1) Animal welfare issues
2) Environmental issues
3) Human welfare issues
4) Global issues that were the most solved in the 20th Century
5) Global threats of the 21st Century
Stage 2
Identify the ‘mega issues’ behind each of the above issues. Mega issues are drivers that have multiple impacts, examples include: population growth, economic growth and human psychology.
We will publicise the results of Stage 1 & 2.
Stage 3
Market test 3 projects that could solve the largest and most urgent mega issue. Narrow the three projects down to one and then roll it out.
