A Proactivist is anyone who goes beyond talking of the problem to courageously, innovatively, positively solution-ing the problem.

Proactvists are the 'move the convo along' version of activists: they create new systemic containers for things to thrive. Activists stir the shit (that's the @uyo.nz instagram!) and then Proactivists move us beyond the concentric, divisive circle, the habitual defensive behaviour, that often shackles us in the mess that we are in, to allow for new ideas to take hold, creating easeful on-ramps for easy self enroll. It is post-cool: there is no need to impress anyone, just do the work.

So, support small businesses that are proactively addressing the world’s struggle against throwaway culture with joy-filled solutions as a Proactivist.
