Littering, spitting, jumping queues, ignoring traffic rules and damaging public property are everyday frustrations in many places.

Approaches people suggest

  • Consistent fines with visible enforcement.
  • Community service for repeat offenders (see the linked solution).
  • Better infrastructure: enough bins, clean public toilets, clear signage.
  • Civic education in schools, and leaders setting an example.

Questions to discuss

  • What has worked in your city or neighbourhood?
  • Which behaviour should be tackled first?
