Common Vision is a think tank working to change the narrative around our shared future. Our mission is to champion public dialogue around social and political issues, and revitalise public diplomacy through encouraging established and new leaders to exchange perspectives and build understanding.
In a world where negative, antagonistic politics only makes people more disengaged, we want to challenge the soundbite and make the case for positive, aspirational ideas about the future of society, the economy and public life where people work together in the interests of what we have in common rather than what divides us.
