The year was 2011. Smartphones and social media were transforming how we communicate. The Arab Spring uprising was showing the world how digital networks could power movements for change.

As these events unfolded, we realised that all over Asia, people were doing good within their communities, unnoticed by most. On the other hand, there were people out there who wanted to do good, but did not know where to begin.

And so we set out to map the beginnings of Our Better World, asking: can stories be a force for good? The answer, it turns out, is yes. Find out how we are using the power of storytelling to inspire action for a better world — and how you can be a part of this community.
