In response to the question of "How do we find solutions?", we have categorized and listed some solutions hubs. This will also act as a beta version of a future Solutions Hub website, although if this scrappy version works, we don't actually need to.
We tend to focus on solutions with a seed of structural change.

Solution Hubs
Evidence Clearing Houses or 'What Works' Hubs
These are hubs curated and led from a scientific approach
Campbell Collaboration
https://www.campbellcollaboration.org/
This an evidence-based clearing house that consolidates of systematic reviews so as to understand what works. It focuses on broader social domains and was inspired by the Cochrane Collaboration that focuses on health and medical care.
You can click on their link to evidence portals to find other sites classified by domains like disability, education, social welfare etc.
What Works Network
Set up by the UK Government to help them improve the creation, sharing and use of evidence for public services. Made up of separate 'What Works Centres' focusing on ageing, children, homelessness etc.
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/what-works-network
Civic Participation and 'Democratic' Innovations Hubs
Participedia
Crowdsourced approaches and case studies on civic participation and democratic innovations. Click on their methods to get a sense of the solutions they care about.
Democracy Collaborative
https://democracycollaborative.org/
They have also set up separate programmes and have links to these other websites:
https://community-wealth.org/ (focuses on building community wealth)
https://thenextsystem.org/ (focuses on systems change because 'systemic problems require systemic solutions')
Solutions Journalism and Related or Similar Sites
https://www.solutionsjournalism.org/
Journalists who report about solutions rather than just problems. These stories are searchable in a database called their Story Tracker.

Social or Policy Innovation Labs
Categories
Ongoing Projects
Interest-Free Loans
Debt Relief and Timebanking
Peer-to-Peer Learning
Local Networks and Communities of Practice (Singapore)
Future of Learning Network
Peer-to-Peer Learning Community of Practice
Worker and Platform Cooperative Network
Worker and Platform Cooperative Network
This is an informal network for 1) non-profits, community groups or entrepreneurs interested to start a worker or platform coop; 2) consultants interested in providing technical assistance; 3) funders interested to resource; 4) existing cooperatives and their associations and 5) researchers interested to study and understand them.
