Social media for a better world!
There is a trending kid on the (social media) block and this one is different from every platform we know today! WeAre8 calls itself a ‘responsible social media platform’ and from the looks of it, it’s hard to argue with them. So what exactly is WeAre8 and what does the platform bring to the online table?
The platform is very clear on the message they want to send. ‘At WeAre8 we have a zero tolerance for hate, support charities and climate solutions, empower creators to share the good in life and even put a little bit of money back in your wallet.’ Sounds too good to be true? Let’s find out how they make this dream, reality.
WeAre8 was founded by Australian-born and London-based tech entrepreneur, Sue Fennessy, who has spent the last 30 years creating disruptive businesses in the digital economy across Asia, Europe and North America. The platform was born out of Sue’s desire to address the negative societal impacts social media has created across the world. She wanted to dress the lack of effectiveness, transparency and waste in many digital advertising models.
So let’s get to the real question… What is it exactly that makes this platform so different from others?
WeAre8 created different feeds for different needs:
Friends Feed

8Challenges
Education is as important as inspiration, that’s why we use our platform to champion causes that make the world a better place and encourage you to take part in our collective acts of goodness.
