Tech Society 036 - From Perth to New York, the Making of a Global Movement!

No amount of gala nights, charity dinners and quiz nights will raise enough to solve global issues.Real changes in our time are orchestrated through galvanising the community towards action with the tools at our fingertips – tech and culture.From a humble beginning of tapping into technology and popular culture through gamification activism to leading successful international advocacy campaigns (universal sanitation, climate mitigation and adaptation efforts, access to education, food security, gender equality and disease elimination and prevention), Michael Sheldrick, Co-Founder and Chief Policy and Government Relations Officer at Global Citizen, provides a useful blueprint for Alexander Dunmow and John Nguyen from Ninja Software to start a journey of thousand miles when it comes to igniting a global movement.References:Global Citizen, https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/RideFair, https://ridefair.io/Tech Cooperatives, Gig Economy & RideFair, https://www.techsociety.fm/episodes/tech-cooperatives-gig-economy-RideFairWebsite:  https://www.techsociety.fm/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/techsociety-fm/?viewAsMember=trueSpotify:  https://open.spotify.com/show/0STaLU0ATmS9dEyey4FwjviTunes:  https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/tech-society/id1516405840Google:  https://podcasts.google.com/search/tech%20societyTwitter: https://twitter.com/TechSocietyFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/techsociety.fm/
