PolicyLk is a community engagement platform focusing on generating policy ideas through discussion and debate, with the expectation to further these community generated policies by involving domain experts and finally to implement them by assisting elected officials and state entities.
We aim to create a platform to connect people and thereby make it easier for people with common interests to get in touch to generate solutions to existing problems or scenarios. The stages to generating community based policies through this approach is as follows:
Identify and bring to light a problem which needs review through people who have understood or experienced this at ground level.
Use platform to connect interested parties in a particular issue or area with experts in that area to brainstorm, discuss and debate on said issue.
Generate sustainable solutions to combat or mitigate the issue.
