IDEAS FOR GOOD

Showcasing creative ideas for good around the world.

What is IDEAS FOR GOOD?

IDEAS FOR GOOD is an online magazine focusing on creative ideas worldwide to address global challenges such as climate crisis, plastic pollution, and gender gap. Instead of telling people how serious those issues are, the magazine spotlights various solutions from cutting-edge technologies to fascinating arts and designs.

By showcasing innovative ideas in one place, we give people new perspectives and inspirations that encourage them to take action. The magazine won the Journalism X award in 2020 for its effort to explore the new way of constructive journalism.

The logo of IDEAS FOR GOOD represents the idea that if we add a “+” symbol, a good idea for our society, then the future will be a lot brighter.
