Ask questions about Social Issues here!

Whatever we tread nowadays in the world of the internet, leads us to more and more information and knowledge and it is up to us to utilize this to help make this world a better place.

I recently came across this website which discusses important questions that address the pressing social issues in our present day world.

Dropping Knowledge is a unique campaign working for social change through the internet. The non-profit initiative encourages open dialogue on the pressing social questions of our time, promoting the worldwide exchange of views, ideas and sustainable solutions.”

You can plunge into any social issue and gain some insight into it and if you want to pose a question, you can!

This led me into knowing about a Human Rights Activist, Founder of the Oakland Institute, Anuradha Mittal. She was responsible for founding THE OAKLAND INSTITIUTE whose mission is to increase public participation and promote fair debate on critical social, economic and environmental issues in both national and international forums.
