Ideas World Cup Cape Town aims to find societal, environmental solutions

Innovators, disruptors, expert facilitators and neuroscience experts have been invited to help tap into participants' creative potential and access all their great ideas. The aim is to find solutions to five societal and environmental challenges facing the city.

• How might we ensure Cape Town’s water security?
• How can we ease traffic congestion?
• In what ways might we prevent fires in informal settlements?
• In what ways might we provide affordable housing in the CBD and surrounding suburbs?
• How can we build our city’s capacity for social entrepreneurship?

The event, open to people of all ages, will be checking in with other Ideas World Cup editions across the world via video feeds to make it a globally connected experience. Cape Town’s goal is to generate 10,000 ideas for its inaugural Ideas World Cup event.
