Have there been any good "90% design" competitions? That would be a cool thing to see.

Offer monetary prizes for best urban shelter, best rural shelter, agricultural, water, transportation based on criteria like:

  1. Potential to impact the most number of people
  2. Beauty
  3. Environmental impact
  4. Low cost
  5. Innovation
  6. Marketability

The results could then be broadly shared and good ideas could be deseminated and fostered via the global networks we are participating in.
