About UsThe Alliance for Sustainable Wellbeing is a national education programme with facilitators in most of the major cities in Australia. Our organising model is to work through groups of people with positive values, and inspire them to engage people they know in thoughtful discussions. Andrew Gaines is the founder and CEO.
Andrew is an innovative systems thinker who has original insights into what it will take to evolve a viable society. He is trained in The Natural Step, a reality-based approach to working out whether a business, a country or the global civilisation is sustainable or not. His academic background is in philosophy, and he works professionally in the areas of creativity training, the Feldenkrais method of body awareness and psychotherapy. He has done advanced work in conflict resolution and in the neurology of improving human performance. He is the author of Briefing for a World That Works and Creativity Games, and he has published on corporate social responsibility in the Journal of Corporate Citizenship and in the CSIRO Sustainability Netletter. Andrew lives in the Blue Mountains, about two hours from Sydney. The story of how he became a committed optimist is
