Institute for the Future and Rockefeller Foundation are launching a
fascinating and ambitious online game to crowdsource ideas on how to
fight global poverty! It's a 48-hour game to cultivate back-of-the-
envelope ideas for new technologies, social enterprises, skillsets,
educational approaches, and other strategies or methods to help and
empower poor and vulnerable populations around the globe. Sound like a
huge endeavor? Yep. The game, called Catalysts For Change, kicks off
on April 3 and you can sign up right now to play (at http://catalyze4change.org/)
.

From the project announcement:

"Catalysts for Change will be played over a 48-hour span. It will draw
players from around the world, with the goal to identify thousands of
new paths out of poverty with hundreds of players from all walks of
life. The game itself will leverage simple 140-character messages to
play cards. Each card will capture an idea, and participants will
build on one another's ideas. By building on the cards, players will
start chain reactions of innovations and solutions that are more than
the sum of their parts."
