Nowadays, media (traditional and social media) focuses primarily on negative events because they draw people in. However, we strongly believe that the media needs to be turned to the positive side to show what people do to uplift their communities. We aim to support initiatives that foster a culture of civic awareness and responsibility, promote volunteering to strengthen social cohesion, address societal challenges, and encourage active citizenship through new technologies.
