What is Positive News?



Positive News is a quarterly international newspaper, founded in 1993 by Shauna Crockett Burrows. The publication focuses on issues rarely covered by the mainstream media and promotes the many individuals and enterprises that are working to create a more healthy, humane and environmentally sustainable world.

Positive News also tries to give a voice to all those small, determined fishes swimming against the tides of big corporate seas and award them for their efforts through honest, impartial media publicity. A place where young and old feel safe to tell their stories without fear of indifference or misrepresentation.

A regular youth section invites young journalists and entrepreneurs, schools, colleges, universities and community groups to publicise their events, projects and achievements to other young readers across the globe. The underlying aim is to inform, inspire and change the world.

The UK edition of the paper is published by Positive News Publishing Ltd, a not-for-profit company based in Shropshire. Offices have since opened in New York, Hong Kong, Madrid and Argentina operating under the same ethos and monitored by The Positive News International Network.

The paper flourishes thanks to the valuable support of its loyal readers in the form of subscriptions and advertising.
