The Progress Network
We are currently living in a time filled with negativity. With constant exposure to grim news and the challenges of a post-COVID world, it’s easy to feel like we are on the brink of disaster. The narrative of chaos and failure is well-supported by information that’s widely available, and it doesn’t take much to find evidence for this viewpoint. However, what if that narrative isn’t the whole truth? There are equally valid ideas and evidence that suggest a more hopeful outcome, though they often go unheard. The Progress Network seeks to elevate and share these optimistic perspectives, offering a vision for a stable and sustainable future. Our contributors come from various sectors, including business, technology, journalism, and politics, but they all share a common belief: that human creativity and our ability to work together for the greater good are ultimately stronger than the negative forces at play.
