An Introduction
Do you ever find yourself wondering what any of us as individuals can do to help solve some of the world's most pressing social, cultural, economic, political, and environmental challenges? Is a blinkered focus on progress in all fields of human endeavour the only way forward, or might there be some wisdom in the principles, ideals, and values of past generations that might offer more effective and sustainable solutions to today's challenges?I'm Michael Alford, a South African born, UK based photographer, urbanist, and entrepreneur on a mission to educate, empower, and inspire people to take whatever part they can in initiating and supporting solutions to improve the places we live and work in, inspired by the transcendent values that built civilisations across the globe and sustained them for millennia.In this first episode of my multimedia blog and podcast, Michael's Mission, I discuss more of my backstory, how it shaped my mission and desired personal brand, and how I'm taking it forward.Find more about me, purchase merch, and more on my main website or read more of my content on Substack, Medium, or Tumblr.
