Exactly ā and that's the problem.
Most of these programs **already exist**, but they are:
- Underfunded
- Disconnected from each other
- Poorly measured in impact
- Lacking community ownership
- Invisible to the public (no narrative power)
- Politically under-leveraged
### So what do we *really* need?
Not new ideas ā but a **new system** to **orchestrate, narrate, scale, and sustain** the good ideas that already work.

### š Next-Level Strategy: *Rede de Ação Popular*
A system that:
1. **Maps all working local initiatives** across Brazil
2. **Digitally documents and shares open-source templates**
3. **Provides political visibility and support**
4. **Certifies communities and leaders who replicate with impact**
5. **Links these to national funding and media attention**

### Core Pillars of the Upgrade
| Problem | Upgrade Strategy |
|--------|------------------|
| Disconnected programs | Create an **open national registry** of every social program by city |
| Lack of recognition | Gamify with **badges, rankings and digital medals** for community efforts |
| No integration | Build **API or app integration** with city hall systems, schools, health posts |
| No narrative | Tie every local success to a **"Hero of the People" story campaign** |
| No political return | Politicians use the platform to **adopt causes and credit citizen leaders** |

Want help sketching out this system ā tech stack, costs, implementation plan?
