levers for change + all things sustainable

I am a french designer, founder and CEO of social innovation consulting socialdesign, sas., specialized in ICT impact on processes, management and organizations, with a special focus on how innovative strategies can foster a world more respectful of human beings and environment. Triple bottom line - you name it!

In the past few years I have implemented change management strategies with the Demos Group for french companies such as Accor, la RATP, l'AFP, PSA et Generali.

I am involved in the beautiful Madmundo project as web advisor and art director, and work on the next step of a not-for-profit civic process with french NGO Bridge Initiative.

I run a french speaking blog, design durable, to promote fresh and helpful ideas on sustainable design.

I share conceptual and spiritual stuff about the future here and personal stuff here.

Wikileaks:About - Wikileaks

We believe that transparency in government activities leads to reduced corruption, better government and stronger democracies. All governments can benefit from increased scrutiny by the world community, as well as their own people. We believe this scrutiny requires information. Historically that information has been costly - in terms of human life and human rights. But with technological advances - the internet, and cryptography - the risks of conveying important information can be lowered.

Worldchanging: Bright Green: "Developing Nations" Creative Commons License

The Developing Nations license allows, for the first time, any copyright holder in the world to participate first-hand in reforming global information policy. The fact is that most of the world's population is simply priced out of developed nations' publishing output. To authors, that means an untapped readership. To economists, it means "deadweight loss." To human rights advocates and educators, it is a tragedy. The Developing Nations license is designed to address all three concerns.
