Reflections on new Mission and Vision: Pyramids of Humane Technology

Thanks for the feedback, Fraser!

The whole revision started from 2 main concerns: 1) giving more focus and 2) restricting scope, and on the latter we realised we should focus mainly on digital technology (the internet + devices) and stop discussions on ‘what constitutes humane technology’ (e.g. humane farming?). Regarding sustainability, there is a whole ‘ecosystem’ of initiatives on that too, but it is a different world than where we are focusing.

That said, we find sustainability i.e. the environment very important, and regarding internet there are many things to be gained (the internet is quite energy intensive, and we generate lotsa e-waste). If you look at my forum structure draft, you’ll find several places where this can find a place, like Sustainable business. But it is not the most prominent concern.

Could you elaborate a bit more about your concerns regarding the pyramid model?
