Don’t just turn the other cheek – CEO Blog

Don’t just turn the other cheek. January 23, 2015. January 23, 2015. I turned around to face him. He can’t have been older than 17. Without saying a word I looked him squarely in the eyes, as though to say, Why do this? Surely you know that punching me in the back of the head, without any provocation, is wrong? I then slowly turned back around to face the opposite direction, ready to disembark at the train station we were pulling into. How do they see the rest of society? These questions played on my min...

engage.re – CEO Blog
http://blog.humanityonline.org/posts/engage-re
April 10, 2014. We are very pleased to announce that the platform we are developing at Humanity Online is to be called engage.re. We wanted something short and simple, something which would capture the purpose of the platform – to engage with issues, projects, people, campaigns, life, community etc! It can also be useful with links to profiles of people and organisations, e.g. engage.re/KristinaDonauskyte or engage.re/UN. The gap in our ‘social’ web. Cracking the nut 21st century style →.

Brexit agitated by 21st Century policies with 20th Century implementations. June 29, 2016. June 29, 2016. Whether you voted to remain or to leave, Brexit has exposed deep divisions in our communities; here in the UK and across europe. But there are solutions. I don’t think any of us would argue that we believe in liberal democracy and civil, economic and human rights if we are content with half a population or even a quarter, tenth or fifth being unhappy. The single market immigration policy is one but p...

Empathy in the age of ‘Like’. February 19, 2014. We lived on farms, then we lived in cities and now we’re gonna live on the internet! Sean Parker, The Social Network (Aaron Sorkin).

Empathy in the age of ‘Like’. How the web hasn’t changed as much as you might think. The gap in our ‘social’ web →.

Cracking the nut 21st century style. April 23, 2014. The field of psychiatry has been the scene of one of most powerful social revolutions in modern history. How far have we come and are there more innovations to come that could, even further, provide groundbreaking approaches to the humanization of the patient and reduce the social stigma that is still pretty embedded in society? In simple words, these doctors, thinkers and philosophers cottoned on to the fact that when someone is pushed to the edge by ...

Remembering 100 years – CEO Blog
http://blog.humanityonline.org/posts/remembering-100-years
August 4, 2014. This morning I was driving to a 10.30 meeting and had the providential opportunity to listen in to the event in Glasgow marking the start of the First World War, 100 years ago to the day. During the ceremony we heard excerpts of the diaries of those who had fought, some of whom had fallen, and political leaders – including Prime Minister David Cameron – prayed for the strength and the courage to act in service to the people they govern, and to nurture and strive for peace. So much of this...
