Founded in 2007 by Charlotte Squire, Happyzine’s purpose is to inspire positive social and environmental change via good news. Happyzine is ‘solutions journalism’ – showcasing inspiring action and developments within fields that have generally been portrayed as beyond hope. There’s always hope. Happyzine is contributed to by dozens of change makers and writers who feel the same. Happyzine also offers a free weekly, Monday ezine (look right).
