Political Transparency
When people have little say in the decision-making process, you no longer have a real democracy. Political accessibility is an issue that’s faced often enough but rarely questioned. We need solutions that make it easier for citizens to be heard by representatives—solutions that can keep people in remote corners of the country informed about the latest decisions, increasing participation in elections and government affairs.
Fake News and Free Press
There is a saying that goes, “Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.” When virality outweighs truth, you have fake news. We need tools for fact-checking and helping people decipher fact from fiction. We need tools to ensure the “freedom of the press” holds for those who are attempting to bring the truth to the public but end up getting bullied by people who abuse power.
Bring to light the corruption around you
Corruption is a disease that eats away at the very core of democracy. Corruption is everywhere, taking various forms. We want to build hacks to expose misconduct to help control its spread and purge the system of corruption.
Create a social impact
We need solutions that will ensure freedom from many social ills. It could be freedom from unemployment, homelessness, child labour... anything and everything that will make India a better place to live in. We want solutions that will trigger socio-economic change.

Challenge 1: Learning Management System
At The/Nudge, the Product and the Operations team are heavily dependent on google drive for creating, updating, and accessing content and assessments. With the addition of a new course content, the trainers undergo only in-person training which at scale will become a challenge in implementation. Managing multiple trackers and several versions of content on google drive often becomes a bottleneck for program effectiveness. For better organization of and access to curriculum and training content and other relevant data, a learning management system is required for smooth execution of the programme.
