Overview

"""An important new method for participatory democracy, which is urgently needed as we face the enormous inter-connected challenges of our times."" Peter Hawkins, Emeritus Professor of Leadership, Henley Business School. Could this democratic invention turn out to be the most significant political innovation of our times? ""Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come."" Saving Our World: Plan B launches The Citizens' Mandate for Change. It is a simple idea which does something new. It gives us a collective political voice with the potential to change our world. The Citizens' Mandate for Change is based on the three core questions of change: From what? To what? And how specifically? It asks us: What issues are you most concerned about? What kind of society would you prefer to be living in? What do you want our government to be doing about it? If we use it, The Citizens' Mandate can change our dysfunctional political and economic systems before it is too late. This book explains how The Citizens' Mandate works, and shows how, at sufficient scale, it gives our combined voices the power to make change happen. With unusual scope and depth, it lays bare the underlying systemic causes of our biggest problems and maps out our best ways to a better world for all. The companion website - citizensmandate - outlines this message of hope in a few short videos. There, you can cast your personal political Mandate for Change. All our 100 word answers are then combined to create our collective Mandate for Change. With enough support, our combined political voice can change our world. ""An interesting initiative, with a clear ""theory of change"" as to how to break through the current deadlock."" Jonathon Porritt, Forum for the Future. John Seymour has 40 years' experience as a consultant in personal change, organisational change, and culture change, working with some of the major organisations in the UK. As a writer, his bestselling book went into 14 languages and sold over a million copies."
