The pending idea is much larger than we can chew, but overall we want to build a platform for which people can like, pin, share etc. on social media platforms in such a way that adds actual monetary value to what otherwise may seem frivolous and a waste of time.
The amount of which each like, pin, etc. would be worth could be a fixed value of less than a cent, or whatever the user sets as their clickable amount, and the money would serve as a donation to a charity pre-selected by the user "clicking."
The idea is that users can share funds with charities in such a way as to eliminate unnecessary allocation of what otherwise should be money going to the recipients of said charities assistance.
Also, it creates a platform for competition amongst users and how much they donate, as well as between charities and the validity of their cause.

for conception for a very local idea from the same school of thought.
Where can I go to determine the best way to go about this kind of thing?
Using social media - also RG - leads to a significant shortage of the ressource "personal time" - for every user. Therefore: To become a member of any social media is not a forcing part of life of a citizen or a scientist: Commonly this goes on the cost of traditional media-using and everyday-communication with friends, colleagues and neighbors. You have to decide which kind of communication is more valuable.
In a time of uncontrollable authors, texts and online-journals peer-review have the function that edited contributions somewhat higher qualified, as a twitter-account. But, of course, "normal" reviewers, if not trained in quantitative methods, have no special knowledge, for example in special aspects of statistics, and they can't in that case not give adequate judgments whether an used statistical test is appropriate or not. The same is applied to all questions which concern the use factor analysis, item construction, scale procedures, or (diagnostic) test theory and problems multivariate procedures. One reason, on the other hand for the here discussed problem ist: a) that often young people ask a question after finishhing ther proceding, without knowledge that such question must be discussed before they begin in a methodic part of the project. ,
(b) The other problem is, that freshly graduated researcher use SSPX, Anova, Manova, and other computerized statistical procedures whithout knowing what the machiner do in simple input- output proceeding. - To avoid unjustified validations by reviewers should be not difficult at least theoretical: You should choose a journal which publish maynly strict quantitative empirical research. Practically often the pressure is high to get the published article much soon, so that such risk is to weigh. Sometimes this leads to the decision: Better giving the article that editor you know best, hoping not to wait longer or to come into danger to get an unqualified reviewing of your work.
I'm moreso asking as I want to implement social change as opposed to merely writing academically about it to be honest, but I do see your point, and I have an idea of what my next steps should probably be, mainly more research of course; yet, it's so difficult to sit idly by watching arbitrary constructions of stereotypes of marginalized people, namely the poor, desecrate people's self worth and inevitably their futures as well as put up with the ignorance of those mounting the throne of self-entitlement through means by which I thoroughly disagree, ie raising currency to a godly status.
