Problem: Trust in media–as well as in world and corporate leadership, is down.  At the same time, people worldwide require an understanding of where we’re at, how we got here, and how we can solve our problems where we are, now.

Solution: Harness the wisdom of experts in their fields; build a comprehensive newswire that not only reveals the stories of what’s working in the world, but what people in communities can do where they are. Through the solutions newswire, we amplify the stories of what’s working and why.  Through the International Corruption Wire, we reveal the stories of corruption as reported by investigative journalists, initiatives and organizations.

The Stories found in The Mobilized Solutions Newswire are made possible through a carefully selected network of media makers and Earth-shakers.  We don’t “steal” their stories, but instead, we help to amplify the wisdom of those on the front lines while providing a hyperlink to the source of each story.
