Profile Information

the organisation I work for is...: global tolerance

its mission is to...: Leave global tolerance at the end of my placement with a wealth of understanding and knowledge about how to turn an every day story, into something that can trigger positive social change.

my job title is: Account Assitant Placement Student

find out more at this website...: http://www.tole-rants.com

my story so far: I'm currently in my third year of University studying Public Relations in Cheltenham. Whilst undergoing my course i became disheartened by the subject of PR, in my lectures we were told in depth how to communicate but never, why. global tolerance provided me with the perfect solution for my situation.

ask me 'why global tolerance?' and I will answer: 'why not?'

the one thing I would change in the world is...: correcting the polarisation of opportunity between the rich and poor of the world

I'm passionate about...: Change, both in myself and the world around me.

I take it you have read this article that Simon was quoted in recently about unethical PR practices?

Another lead you might want to try is this guy Nick Davies who wrote a very high profile book called Flat Earth News, which was about how the PR industry was compromising the integrity of the media (WHAT integrity??!)

I dont know much about these guys, but this might be an interesting campaign to look at too:
