The Mandate Project seeks to amplify the voices of young professionals and domain experts in an effort to better coordinate efforts between civil society, academia, and policy practitioners. The Mandate is an online platform meant to bring together individuals from different walks of life - united in their concerns, yet distinguished by their approaches - to address the most pressing problems of our time. The key differentiator between us and think tanks is that the members of the community determine what the most pressing issues are. You devise the mandate!
