The 21st Century Citizen. How do we Get Involved Today?
For the past ten years my partner at qmedia solutions and I have been doing a lot of pro bono work for a number of not-for-profits and charities. We've really enjoyed it but we wanted to do more. First we wanted to tell stories about some of the amazing people who had inspired us. And so we started with TV storytelling and on October 26th Get Involved had it's World Premiere on TVO-- Ontario's premiere public broadcaster. So far we have produced 25 profiles of amazing innovators, social entrepreneurs and activists. Take a look at our stories. Tell us what you think. Tell us about people or organizations that inspire you. During our research we sensed a growing movement growing all around us-- people realizing their skills and their expertise can be used not only to bring them financial rewards but deeper connection and meaning in their lives. And so our next step was to concieve of a website that would transform the inspiration of the television profiles and help propell people into action and Getinvolved.ca was born. Join the conversation...

Technology Meets Sustainability
Here at Get Involved we are passionate about technology as a tool for social change. As social media evolves, more and more the opportunities for global collaboration for sustainability multiply as we are able to share our solutions for a better world. Recently Microsoft commissioned Seattle studio Oh, Hello to produce their vision of a sustainable future in 2019, conceptualizing how sustainability and technology will merge. Get inspired and feel free to post your comments on how you believe what future directions new technology will bring in producing sustainable solutions for the future!
