Good Things

Over the years I’ve come across a number of organisations and people who have inspired me or made me think. Click on the links to find out more about them and the work they do.

Colalife ColaLife is working in developing countries to bring Coca-Cola, its bottlers and others together to open up Coca-Cola’s distribution channels to carry ‘social products’ such as oral rehydration salts and zinc supplements to save children’s lives.

You can buy a Coca-Cola virtually anywhere in developing countries but in these same places up to 1 in 5 children die before their 5th birthday from simple preventable causes like dehydration from diarrhoea.

ColaLife started as an online ‘movement’ in April 2008. It now has more than 10,000 online supporters and these have given it the power to engage Coca-Cola, UNICEF and other key stakeholders

ColaLife is an independent non-profit organisation run and staffed by volunteers

Social Spaces Social Spaces is project which studies positive community initiatives and aims to test if these types of projects can be stimulated elsewhere through spreading ideas and practices. I was an early advisor to the project, which included the production of Handmade
