“Wait, why is just the Pen mightier than the sword ” - The Pencil
Just like that, we’re onto our section White Paper Sprint: The Govrn Solution
We’re amped to get this section out in the open. We’ve been hearing so many questions on how Outcome-Based Donations work. We hope that this section starts to answer some of these questions and prompts new debates and ideas 💡 !
A Note on the Govrn Ethos
We mention this in the introduction of the section, but we think it’s so important we want to include it here as well.
At Govrn, we focus on the journey to fix the problem, not the solution. Quite often, by hyperfocusing on a solution, it’s easy to forget about the problem(s) you are trying to solve. Our proposed solution is merely one idea that we believe can help solve the problem in politics and government. We won’t pretend like we aren’t big advocates of our solution, but it’s only one solution -- and solutions can and must iterate. The goal of the Govrn project is to propose new ideas so as to trigger public debate. We hope that many people comment on both the benefits and drawbacks of our proposed solution, as well as even propose some of their own solutions.
We will always care 100x more about solving a problem than we do about any solution we propose. Our journey will forever and always be to solve the problem.
