Good4Trust
We are a community where ecologically and socially just producers come together with the prosumers purchasing these products for their needs, in order to transform the world consumed by our current lifestyles into a livable planet again. As Good4Trust, we are a non-profit social enterprise. We are protecting the nature and humans that are being consumed in the pursuit of profit-maximization, and we are contributing to the healing of both the human and ecological health as a community. Local producers are producing in harmony with nature, without any toxic materials or waste, with clean energy and fair working conditions. At the same time, the prosumers are specifying their needs through their preferences and participation, taking part in the governance, and ensuring the transformation of the system. We are all working together in a genuine community we have been longing for. Good4Trust believes that a new economic system, in which people can live in a socially just, peaceful world in harmony with nature, can be established. For this reason, Good4trust.org proposes a new economic system formed by ecologically and socially just producers and prosumers who prioritize shopping for their needs from these producers. We refer to this system as the “Prosumer Economy,” and the buyers in this system are called “Prosumers.” However, this healing and participatory system is not only based on shopping. Prosumers contribute to the production processes and participate in the management, as well. Prosumers, as a community, are able to transform the production processes of producers with their high purchasing power. Furthermore, they are taking part in the acceptance process of the producers into the system and the policy forming processes with Council of Seven members, which they choose amongst them. Thus, all stakeholders can take an active role in forming a real community that we all have been longing for.
