Our systems are failing. Right across education, healthcare and government, food production, energy supply and commerce, old models are creaking under the weight of modern challenges. As the world's population nears 10 billion, it's clear we need new approaches. In "We Do Things Differently", Mark Stevenson seeks out the innovators who are challenging the status quo and pioneering new ways to make our world more sustainable and equitable. From off-grid African villages 'technology leapfrogging' the West, to the boardrooms of (unsung) corporations that are taking the environment seriously, via patient-led groups transforming healthcare and new systems of citizen government that are helping Brazilian favelas find a new future, "We Do Things Differently" travels the world to find the advance guard re-imagining our future. Populated by extraordinary (and often hilarious) characters, "We Do Things Differently" paints an enthralling picture, offering a window on, and a road map to a different future.
