Colin R. Turner is a writer, musician and social activist from Dublin, Ireland. Already a well known blogger and activist, Colin is also founder of the popular initiative The Free World Charter - an initiative which calls for a radical redesign of our culture and shift in basic human priorities.

He has also founded a number of other popular online altruistic initiatives, most notably HonorPay – a virtual award and appreciation network (honorpay.org), and Freeworlder – a social network and forum for followers of the Open Economy idea, and from where he also blogs (freeworlder.org).

Colin's ideas for an Open Economy are the main subject of his writing and activism. The most notable principle of the Open Economy concept is evolving beyond the traditional market system into an era of greater compassion, collaboration and efficient use of technology to create a better world for all.
