Generation Share takes readers on a journey around the world to meet the inspiring people who are building a Sharing Economy.

Through inspiring photography, social commentary and interviews with change-makers worldwide, the book will bring to life the phenomenon that has the potential to cause the most significant shift in society since the Industrial Revolution. It showcases incredible stories demonstrating the power of sharing; from the young social entrepreneur in Mumbai who is educating slum-based girls, to a Makers collective in Barcelona who are reimagining cities, using technology to upcycle precious resources.

The book is a collaboration between global Sharing Economy expert and speaker Benita Matofska and Sharing Economy photographer Sophie Sheinwald.

‘Dispelling the myths surrounding the Sharing Economy, Generation Share goes beyond the big corporates and delves into the wider social and environmental impacts of sharing: from human milk banks saving the lives of premature and sick babies; social enterprises helping find employment for the homeless; to food sharing that is taking people out of food poverty.’ - Giving Times

‘But with its striking visuals and compelling stories, the book has broad appeal for anyone interested in learning more about the sharing economy.’ - Rose City Reader
