Frances F. Korten, who worked along side S. Ann Sutoro, is/was (at least in 1998) Executive Director Positive Futures Network, publisher of “Yes!” magazine. “Yes!” is about peace, justice, planet, new economy, people power & happiness. Frances is married to David Korten, who is president and founder of the People-Centered Development Forum, and serves as a board member of the Business Alliance for Local Living Economies, and co-chairs the New Economy Working Group.

He is an associate of the International Forum on Globalization and a member of the Club of Rome. He holds MBA and PhD degrees from the Stanford Graduate school of Business and is a former faculty member of the Harvard Graduate School of Business. He was previously a Ford Foundation project specialist in Manila and an Asia Regional Advisor on Development Management for the US Agency for International Development.

David has authored numerous books, including Agenda for a New Economy: From Phantom Wealth to Real Wealth, The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community, When Corporations Rule the World, and The Post-Corporate World: Life After Capitalism.

Some more about “Yes!”:
We are conducting a global experiment with the life-support capacity of the Earth. Global climate change; the widespread dispersal of chemicals that disrupt human and wildlife reproduction; soil, forest, and aquifer depletion; and species extinctions are signs that our ways of life are far from sustainable.

People of all classes are experiencing the tearing of the social fabric that accompanies growing inequality - 450 billionaires now control the same resources as half of humanity....

Just doing a little, “where they are today” sort of stuff.
