PERPETUAL ROOT, The Social Issues Page Steemits were waiting for! - To foster change, together, ono step at the time.
Dear reader,
Welcome at Perpetual Root on Steemit, a portfolio of stories, faces and ideas. I hope to inspire you to be an active part of your community and engage with others to build a better society, for everybody.
My articles will cover a broad range of topics, from climate change to child welfare, but the common thread will be investigation and research. I believe the main duty of a journalist is to tackle societal issues, put them in the spotlight and propose valid solutions, which should lead to policy improvements. This does not mean that my writing will only expose the ugly of our society. On the contrary, my focus will be especially on examples of ‘good practice’, those cases of success that can inspire others to follow the path.
I also introduced a photography section of the portfolio. This is a quite unexplored field for me, but I am keen on learning more and practising. My idea is to produce collections of pictures of the places I am most familiar with, as either my home country or countries where I lived. The purpose is to be able to provide the perspective from within: pictures that portray the vibe of a city and the souls of its inhabitants.
To conclude, I think it’s time for a short bio. I was born in Milan, Italy, but I moved to the Netherlands two years ago to study at the Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University. In Rotterdam, I met the most diverse group of people, who now are my best friends and my family. My experiences abroad have made me eager to know more about cultures and places. Curiosity and creativity are the two forces pushing me towards journalism and photography.
I have started my writing career with the jEURnalist, an amazing blog written by students of the Erasmus University. Now, after one year, I’m still working with them (actually, I’m on the board of the blog), but I decided it is the time to start publishing on my own too. I’m very excited to begin this new a Steemit adventure and see where it will lead me.
With love,
Costanza

I LOVE this! I am starting a collective consultancy group and would love to have you as a foundational resource and founding member. That is to say, IT IS STILL A STARTUP lol, some people get confused. I am looking for individuals who would like to be a part of a serious venture. A socio-economic movement that will not just change the blockchain industry forever it will truly change the world. That is the goal. If you're interested, check out some of my posts, for now, it is mostly being planned out and I am seeking out my co-founders who would like to make it our own. you can contact me at [email protected] or on steemit.chat @meowzinator. Welcome!
Hello Meowzinator and thank you for reaching out! I am actually very new to the cryptocurrency market but I'm keen on learning more. My purpose is to bring about social change by spreading light on issues that are overlooked by mainstream media. So, I'm first and foremost a journalist, a researcher and a reporter. My background, however, is in Business. I would love to know more about your startup, and also to become more knowledgeable about the functioning of Steemit and of the blockchain in general, to understand its real potential. Uh, by the way, I read your posts: very well done! ;)
