Stories that change the narrative
Innovators Magazine is on a mission to use the power of good communication to inspire a synergy between innovation and justice.
Major leaps are being made in how we make, power, and grow things, as new carbon-friendly technologies and innovations pave the way for the transition to a net zero world. Everyone knows about many of these phenomenal innovations, and knows they are not being adopted fast enough. Everyone also knows there are historical injustices embedded deep inside the old operating systems responsible for creating an unfair world. Which makes innovation with equity a prerequisite for achieving meaningful and transformative change. We cannot just graft pioneering new practices and products onto the structurally unsound foundations that made societies a mess in the first place and hope for the best. For too long these rotten foundations have been allowed to destroy the lives – and indeed any semblance of hope – for billions of people worldwide.
